I bought a grey skirt the other day, which wasn't so adventurous, but then I also bought a red belt to go with it, so I forgave myself. :) Steph: Great minds love the same designers? :) Thank you – I am trying not to think about the fit, and am concentrating on just finishing (or at least, getting the body done so I can try it on!).

I'm after something to make in a similar shade of DK cotton. Nice idea! I'm a mostly black person too but have been trying to add accents of colour, so I don't have to stray too far from what I love best. Oh that’s very nice looking yarn.

Congratulations on taking the brave step into knitting the first large project for yourself. It can be a little scary. But I think it'll turn out beautiful. And I second Piglottie - I LOVE the color.

I'm stuck on seemingly endless ribbing at the moment but I think it's going to be quite pretty when (if?) I finish. A big project like this is quite a shock to the system for a knitter-of-small-things...

I've only ever knitted one cardigan for myself, but want to be braver this year. And I'm sure your finished cardigan will look gorgeous. I adore the colour of the Cashcotton – stunning!
