I am pretty happy with it, just a few things. I wish I&#8217;d made it bigger. I tend to wear cardigans and jackets quite big, and this isn&#8217;t as big as I&#8217;d like. DH assures me it looks fine, but to me I looked a bit stumpy. Ah, body image \ud83d\ude09<br \/>\nI made the Large, and got the kit from <a href=\"www.peacefleece.com\">Peace Fleece<\/a>, the colour is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.peacefleece.com\/bors.htm\">Blueberry Borscht<\/a>. The kit comes with enough yarn to make the biggest size, although I think their yardages are off. The pattern said 5 1\/4 skeins, <a href=\"http:\/\/nadajknits.typepad.com\/\">Renada<\/a> was spot on when she left a comment saying pretty much exactly 6 skeins. I was left with around 15 yards from the sixth skein.<br \/>\nThe cardi itself is lovely, a little itchy for directly against the skin, but I think it&#8217;s too bulky to wear much under it. Personal preference, I guess.<br \/>\nOverall, I enjoyed the knit, love the yarn, love the colour, and will no doubt wear it to death!! \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>And yet another FO!
