| My Kasha from A Stitch in Time, Volume 2 |
Isn't this cardigan just ridiculous?! As you probably know from my previous posts including it I have fallen pretty hard for this completed cardigan (Kasha from A Stitch in Time Volume 2) and I can't wear it enough. It's definitely my favourite new knit of this year! A lot of you expressed an interest in it so I thought I'd give you a closer look...

| The original Kasha |
Although the pattern may look complicated I actually found it fairly simple once I had gotten used to the repeat. It was really fun working on something intricate for a change as I've been facousing on colour work quite a lot recently. I wouldn't recommend it to a beginner as I think it would be a bit overwhelming and it doesn't grow particularly quickly, but if you're a fairly competent knitter and can read patterns well then you shouldn't have any problems. Give it a go, it's too pretty not to!
Here are a couple of close-up shots to emphasise the prettiness...
This is the first pattern I have worked with from A Stitch in Time Volume 2 and I loved working with it, it's a beautiful book and I'm already planning my next project. All in all this was a really fun project, using a great pattern and resulting in a gorgeous knit, so I couldn't be happier!

Have any of you knitted anything from A Stitch in Time Volume 2? I'd love to hear about it :)

I am speechless. Apart from to say that this is WONDERFUL and I am green with envy at your knittery!
Guh! That is stunning!
That is a great cardigan. I love the color too.
That cardigan is beautiful. You've done a fantastic job.
Your cardigan is gorgeous! I already wanted it to make it for myself the moment I opened A Stitch in Time 2, but now I want to knit it even more! However, first I'm going to make Blouse with Gathered Neckline. On needles 1.75 mm...
Gorgeous knitting, very impressive work
It looks great with that red skirt.
gorgeous sweater my dear and so well done, such even tension")
SO BEAUTIFUL! I LOVE IT!!!
Ohhh I've been lusting after this since I got the book last year. What yarn did you use? Yours is nicer than the one in the book!
Your Kasha is brilliant! I love it every time I see it.
I just finished up So Neat and Sweet from vol. 2 but need to photograph it. I'm head over heels over it but being long-sleeved, sadly I won't be able to wear it for quite some time. Now I'm trying to decide on my next project!
This is GORGEOUS! Great job!
Beautiful! The stitch pattern is so stunning. I just got Volume 1 for my birthday (hooray!) and am itching to get something started soon. So many lovely designs! I think I may have to ask for Volume 2 for Christmas... ;)
It's amazing! This pattern has been one of my favorites for awhile now, but I love that yours looks a bit more cropped than the original. Soooo pretty! :)
