After the success of my first Evendoon Cardigan I wanted to have another go. This would give me another colour to wear and allow me to make a couple of small changes that I've thought of from wearing the first one.
This time I wanted to make the arms and body just a little longer. And I made the ribbing at the bottom of the body a little longer too.
Although I think this is a very straightforward pattern, I still managed to mess it up twice and had to undo it - once where I turned half way through a row when I got distracted and put it down for a bit! So it did take a little longer than the first.
This time I was using Stylecraft Special DK in plum - 3 balls. And I made glass buttons in black. The black isn't really black, but a very dark transparent purple which you'd see if you held them up to the light, but looks black here.
I'm pretty happy with it, but the real test will be in the wearing. Roll on my next day in the office.
