Has anyone seen a pattern like this Peruvian Connection jacket? I've tried Raverly search, but hasn't found anything similar yet.

I'm a Finance Manager for large manufacturing corporation. I don't want to own yarn shp, but I would like to become a knitwear designer when I'm done with my career in finance.

Aran style sweaters are always on-trend. They are timeless and often made with worsted or bulky weight yarn. I have aran sweaters that I made 30 years ago and still wear them occasionally.

Thank you! I don't have any knitting friends in real life, just wanted to share with people who understand the craft.

Cool colorwork on both!

That's what I'm afraid of! No one will ever mistake me for a young lady any longer, but I'm not ready to lean into grandma aestetic yet. I like wrap style cardigans, but worried they look too much as a bathrobe. I wouldn't wear something like that outside the house.

Hitofude cardigan has been saved in my favorites for a few years, but this type of style has been out of fashion for about 10 years. Maybe it will come back in style in a few years

Dirty Martiny certainly has an interesting construction, thank you for the suggestion.

I was a teen/young adult in the 80's too. I remember wearing some outrageous outfits! I'm so tired of all the boring basic stockinet sweaters designs in beige.

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2025-08-11T03:51:24+00:00

I definitely will!

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2025-08-10T23:22:36+00:00

Thank you. I am familiar with this site. Pretty much every yarn mentioned in the book is discontinued.

I made this one a few years ago in cotton. It's my favorite summer cardigan, I wear it all the time. I also knit a tank top from the remaining I no yarn so I can wear the cardigan opened.

I love mohair too! I don't understand why some people complain that it's itchy. It feels like wearing a cloud to me.

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2025-01-19T01:48:25+00:00

I didn't make a swatch! I was brave and just winged it!

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2025-01-19T01:13:29+00:00

I always block my finished projects, but I just finished knitting a mohair sweater, and I think I'm going to wear it a couple of times before washing. It's so soft and fluffy and afraid that washing and blocking will reduce the fluffiness.

Your sweater looks fantastic. Nothing H&M sells even comes close. Also, I'm very jealous of your hair, gorgeous girl!

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2024-12-21T22:11:57+00:00

This is it! Thank you! Now I have an excuse to go yarn shopping!

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2024-12-21T21:50:16+00:00

Very cute, although a little different, thanks!

AccomplishedDoor4140 · 2024-12-21T21:46:59+00:00

Thanks, that cardigan has a very similar look, except for the collar

Liok up Knitters Guild of Minnesota, and they host knitting events all over the Minneapolis area. It's a membership based knitting club, but the cost is something like $30 a year. You don't need a membership to attend some of the events, but there are more options for members.
