  I've been knitting off (insert returning to college here) and on for the past 15+ years and have been reading not posting here. Of all the objects I've knitted, I have never made a cardigan sweater for myself. I chose the Feather and Fan Stitch Cardigan from the winter 2007 issue of Interweave Knits, even though I don't like the f&f stitch, as a

Interesting sleeves, let us see what it looks like on. (When you've done the button band)

Yikes! That would mean I would have to have my picture taken!

Wow! This is so lovely!
I am starting a top-down cardigan any day now, and the color in this sweater has inspired me (I was going to do it all in a natural brown). I've been tearing my place up looking for the Winter 2007 Interweave Knits ... I know it's here somewhere! Was it top down and in one piece?

Thanks!

This one was knit in the traditional three pieces from the bottom up.

and I second the request for post-finished pictures!

This turned out beautiful! I've been eying the feather and fan cardigan in IK since it came out! I like your color choices. Please show us a finished pic too?

I haven't seen the magazine, so I'd love to see what it looks like all done and finished and worn.
So far it looks lovely, and as another person who is 'meh' about F&F I have to say the use of a bit of it, in different colours really did change my mind.
I really do love it.
