When I started sharing my crafts online (almost 10 years ago now!) I pretty much exclusively shared knitting. I had caught the knitting bug and would spend hours every day stitching away. I had a go at pattern designing, yarn-bombing, and plenty of personal knitting projects as well. But these past few years I have been much more focused on sewing and embroidering. I think it’s natural for interests to shift like that and I’m sure in a few years I’ll be focused on something else. I still like to always have a knitting project on my crafting back-burner, it’s a cozy and easy-to-pick-up project in between my other projects. I decided to make a second Sunday Cardigan because I wear the first one so much, and also because I like repetition sometimes. You can read about the first Sunday Cardigan I made here.

I decided to make this second one a more neutral taupe colour, so I used Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok Worsted in the colour Gravel Road held with Lichen and Lace Marsh Mohair in the colour Linen. I knit with three strands of wool, one of worsted wool held with two strands of mohair. Before I started knitting the sweater I took a quick photo of the beautiful yarn. I just checked the date on this photo and I took it in towards the end of 2021, which means this sweater has been my back burner project for two years now!

It turned out absolutely perfect, just like the first. I am a huge fan of this pattern, these sweaters are my two most worn! Will I knit a third? Maybe! But after working on this one for two years, I think whatever sweater I choose for my next one, I will try to start and finish in 2024. Let’s see how it goes!
