This was one of the quickest sweaters I’ve knit up lately and one of the most enjoyable, easy-but-not-boring projects!
This is the Sandshore Cardigan soon-to-be-released by Alicia Plummer. Begun on the 7th and bound off and blocked on the 17th, this could have easily been finished within a week if that thing we call “Life” didn’t get in the way.
I knit the smallest size and used almost 5 skeins of Llamalini and when the cardi wasn’t fully dry from the blocking by the following morning, I threw it in the dryer for a little while (becauseIwanttowearitrightnowdammit) and the yarn definitely softened up, didn’t felt and was wearable the entire day!
I can tell this is going to be one of my go-to sweaters this summer and I’m excited to have another one to add to my collection!
What have you been knitting lately?
Gorgeous! I just finished a baby blanket for a friend
Hi Holly,
You are a speedster!! It’s a gorgeous cardigan in a great color. I also wanted to share that I’ve nominated you for a Liebster Award on my blog. It’s totally voluntary to participate but I’ve enjoyed reading your posts and wanted to give you a shout out! Thanks for sharing!

Thanks for the nomination! I also arrange my closet by sleeve length 😉
I finished a Vertebrae cardigan for my future son, Nathaniel. Then I began the mama version for myself.
Oh yay! I think this is the first time I’ve been told what you’re going to name him and that’s a great one 😀 Happy baby knitting!
you are gorgeous, lady, and it was such a privilege to have you testing 🙂
This is lovely!
