My Carlito Cardigan
Finished this about 2 years ago, but never got to post it. Changed quite a bit...but love wearing it. Indian head nickel buttons, Cuccoon is the name of the grey trim yarn. Red is Peruvia.

That is a VERY handsome piece
That is a VERY handsome piece of work. All that directional knitting must have really kept you on your toes! Color choices and buttons well done. Is it for you? I think that it would show off your strong chest and shoulders to great advantage.
FIVE GOLD STARS !!........Eric
Thank you for you affirming
Thank you for you affirming enthusiasm! The traveling stitches were a challenge to keep...well, moving in the right direction, reversing for a time six times front to back to front again. I also did the cable insert panel as one long stretch, steeked, then cut to retain the tension at the armholes and match the pattern. Quite a nice exercise in seamless knitting.
I love the fit on my chest and shoulders...but a great jacket for almost any build.
Smart looking cardigan, great

Very nice. Love the cable work and the choice of colors. Dark burgandy colors are some of my favorites.
There are some who have said
There are some who have said to me that I was born to wear red. I guess I took their advice seriously...no, it is an addiction...LOL...or a genetic predilection from my North Sea island forebears. I, perhaps, am channelling Jessica Rabbit!
