Maris

The first time I posted about this cardigan was waaaaay back in February 2007, when all the pieces had already been knit up.  

 

Pattern source: Maris, from Rowan 41.  Yarn: 9 balls Rowan Calmer in Bleached. 

Knitting time:  two weeks.  Seaming time: one gazillion years.  

  The front bands are folded down and tacked with buttons, as are the sleeve cuffs. 

 

It sure feels good to finish!

Well done for terrific work! The seaming obviously paid off.

Hi Yoonie

A bluestocking knits compiled a list of most of HKs easier to find yarn
stores here:

Tailor and Alteration has a lot of notions, Japanese pattern books and
other things for all types of crafts but its VERY cramped.

Therere stalls and stores selling cheap fabric in the Sham Shui Po area,
but Im not familiar with those at all. Siow Chin of Little Purl of the
Orient blog might be better able to help you with that info.

November is a great time to visit HK. I hope youll enjoy your visit!

Cheers,
Joy
