Pattern: Coraline, by Ysolda. good pattern, but Ysolda obviously took the yoke pattern from another blog without crediting her.

Yarn: Aslan Trends Invernal in indigo, approx 900 yards, that is, 3 skeins and a little bit more

Needles: Size 4 (3.5 mm) dpns for sleeves, size 6 (4 mm) circular needles for the body and yoke

Very pretty cardigan. I get quite a few compliments on it. It’s different from anything you would find in a store, which is excellent. Also, the yarn is GREAT. It is very soft (being an angora blend) and the color is rather perfect.

I just won a blog contest?

Haha, I never win anything. This is strange.

This time it wasn’t based on chance. I had to write a story. My story turned to be a bit sad, and yet emotionally detached with a child-like innocence. And it won, strangely enough..

And thus, I won a few skeins of yarn. The non-knitter will not understand my glee over the prize.
