Mogensen Cardigan

Pattern: Mogensen Cardigan

Yarn: Woolfolk Tage - 9 skeins in color 00

Needles: US 5s (ribbing) and US 7s

Size: 4 (finished bust 54”)

Buttons: 3/4” mother of pearl in ecru

Lots of loft, very warm, but pretty itchy/prickly . . . I wouldn’t want to wear it directly on my skin (except maybe for the sleeves). The composition of the yarn also doesn’t hold shape/structure very well, so I’m not sure how this cardigan will wear over time, and for me, it doesn’t have enough structure to carry off this shape and design without looking like it’s sagging in places. I went up a size, thinking that I wanted the slouchy, oversize look, but I’m not sure I like the end result.
