My Jehanne cardigan still needs buttons… and a second sleeve, yet it’s nearly finished !

I fought with numbers and sizing all afternoon and am nearly done with the pattern. Despite June not being the best time of year to crochet a woolen cardigan, I hope to find a few willing testers to help with the final phase.
Maybe I’ll be able to publish a whole lot of “new” patterns this summer ! :-D

Speaking of summer… Yes I do live in the mountains. But yesterday was the first of June and it SNOWED right above the village !! Mind you. If the weather stays like this, I’ll be able to wear my new hooded cardigan a lot ! ;-)

I’m also starting a collection of potholders, trying to experiment different options and play with ideas ’till I master the whole thing enough to feel satisfied with the perfect balance between a pretty design, perfectly flat shape AND functionality (no hole in a potholder or you’ll get fingers burned, I learned the hard way !) Meanwhile, it also helps reduce my huge stash of cottons… Looks like I don’t knit/crochet much in the summer in the end, my stash is huge.
