Garter Yoke Cardi

Last Thursday when we were in route to Detroit, frustrated with Ingenue, I cast on for the Garter Yoke Cardi! Last night I finished off the 2nd sleeve. We have a high in Tulsa today and tomorrow of 70 degrees. This may have influenced the elbow length sleeves. I would like to wear this one a bit this spring... The shaping is actually perfecto! I attribute this to putting it on waste yarn to try it on (thanks Robin!). It really only took 15 minutes to do and helped me to make a few alterations on the shaping.

RobinM - such a dear - gave me some good pointers on Ingenue - and pullovers in general. I really like the neck of Ingenue, so I think I may take another crack at it after I finish John's vest...

I will post modeled pics of the GYC on Monday - I will have to sew on 10 buttons this weekend!

Happy, sunny Friday everyone! Definitely enjoy your day!
