Baby Duck Cardi

Another little project for NGH.

I saw this pattern online and thought it would be great for KDR but Mommy didn't seem too keen. I still wanted to try the pattern so I used NGH yarn


I am quite pleased with the finished cardi but I am not happy with the colourwork. I found it hard to keep the stitches even. This is probably the last of this style that I will make. I'd rather do cables and stitch patterns. 
  It was an easy pattern. No armhole shaping . I may use it as a basic cardi.  The downside is being knitted in pieces. I think I could knit the body up to the armholes all in one and then divide. I might even try picking up the sleeves and doing them on dpns.

Pattern: Children's Duck Cardigan by Amy Bahrt
