Please excuse the quality of the pics but I was rushing around this morning trying to take them before coming to work. My mom was visiting and was taking the cardigan back with her so I had to get the pics this morning. I only finished it late last night and the ambient lighting in our house is not conducive to taking pics after dark!!!! Anyway, enough excuse making - here's another pic .....
As you can see, it's a very basic stocking stitch pattern with two identical rib columns up each front (I call them barley sugar twists!!! Does anyone else remember barley sugar twists???)
I must say, I'm pretty pleased with how it came out and although it looks a little ropey cos I haven't washed or blocked it yet, it is very soft, very drapey and screaming to be worn!!! I know Granny Ann is going to love it and we're just going into Winter here so it's timely too!
I'll be posting the pattern on a separate post so pop over and check it out if you fancy making one. I'm goiing to make one for me but in a very soft grey ....
Til soon.

This is SO lovely Laura! Well done you! It looks SO professional. And yes, make another in a beautiful soft grey for yourself - perfect. I wish my knitting were up to making garments but not quite there yet! I love your finger-bisciit cars too - what fun those little ones must have had. E x
