I'm sewing on some fungus ribbon, which I once bought from Stof & Stil. The purpose of adding it, is to make the edges in front more firm, and to help keep the fit, after numerous times of buttoning and unbuttoning the cardigan.
I haven't been able to find the right size of press studs yet, but hopefully I will succeed with that when I get to town. Not tomorrow though. That day is devoted to celebrate Christian when he turns 43...
All those final details are absolutly not my favourite part of knitting. Somehow I don't feel the need to get it done and ready, as fast as possible. Instead I would rather start a new knitting (and leave the many ends of yarn alone).It's actually strange because as you already know, I l o v e to sew by hand. But I will get it done eventually - it's just a matter of time before I get annoyed by the looks of an unfinished cardigan.
Luckily that's a closed chapter with this cardigan...
This turned out so beautifully, and I love the mushroom ribbon!
ReplyDeleteThank you very much, Veronika. :)) I looked through all of my ribbons to find the right one. The red colour isn't completely like I wanted it to be, but I gave up after a long search. ;)
