These
cardigans were made using the free Ellie pattern by Berroco (designed by Maureen
Basher) (click here for pattern).
The
cardigans were made in sizes 2 and 4, using the recommended yarn (Berroco Comfort
DK, 3 balls of Rosebud (2723) and 4 balls of Teaberry (2730)) and hook sizes
4.5mm and 5.0mm. There was only a tiny amount of yarn left over.
The
pattern states it requires an intermediate skill level, and it was relatively
easy to follow, just watch for a few errors – one of these being the sleeve
length instructions which differ between the text and the diagram (follow the
text). The other errors are minor and easily avoided if you are careful to keep
the stitch pattern constant.
I
am very happy with the finished cardigans as they are very pretty, and have a
great texture and a nice soft finish.
