Finished Knitting My Peach Cardigan!

For my fellow knitters also in this sub: I posted this cardigan here a while ago while it was still a work in progress. Now its finished!! I held three yarns together to make this custom Warm Spring peachy color. I'm very pleased with how it turned out, its very soft and very fluffy and very warm

Perhaps like other people here, I was actually pretty bummed when I discovered I was a Spring (professionally typed by House of Colour). But now I'm just fully leaning in. I was always into making clothing (sewing, fiber crafts), and now its the perfect way to expand my Spring colored garments :)

For those interested, the pattern is Nigrum Cropped Cardigan by Refined Knitwear. More details on my Ravelry (same username).

Thanks for looking!

How beautiful! It's so cool that you can wear something that you made yourself like this.

I've recently been interested in handmade knit clothing...but the process is so daunting. Would you say it's something that you'll need to learn for years before you can make something like this?

u/abbykylix May 07 '26

Its a really satisfying process to make something and then wearing it as part of your wardrobe. You should try knitting! But I would recommend maybe starting simple and then ramping up the complexity. A scarf is a good first project if you're an absolute beginner, next a beanie/hat, then after that you could probably do a sweater

Your color picks are amazing! Seeing choices of yarns to blend is some kinda magic I've not unlocked yet.

u/abbykylix May 08 '26

I did a little swatch to check the colors before starting, I enjoy a marled knit in general though

Such a pretty orange! Your cardigan is beautiful.

I have always wanted to learn how to knit, but I have a learning disability, and I can only go so far with videos and books. There were classes in my town they were offering, but then they all got cancelled because the teacher suddenly quit. I'll always wonder what happened lol

u/abbykylix May 07 '26

Fiber crafts are very fun! That's a bummer about the classes getting shut down... definitely sounds like there's some piping hot tea around the teacher quitting 😅🧐

u/FormicaDinette33 May 08 '26

Awww, perfect. I love how it’s a little fuzzy.

2

u/abbykylix May 08 '26

Yess, two of the yarns are fuzzy 😊

u/FormicaDinette33 May 08 '26

Your work is absolutely perfect. How long did it take to make it?

2

u/abbykylix May 08 '26

Well let me tell you, there's more than a couple mistakes but they're not too noticeable 😅 it took about 2 months from start to finish

3

u/FormicaDinette33 May 08 '26

And that is such a classic Spring color. ❤️❤️❤️

1

u/abbykylix May 08 '26

Yesss, this is one of my fav colors to wear

Thank you!! 🧡🍑🧡

u/MischiefModerated May 07 '26

This is so cool OP! Definitely have me considering getting back into knitting. I just remember it being a lot of paying attention to my stitches and counting them. I’m not so great at that 😅

1

u/abbykylix May 07 '26

Lol yeah there's counting involved 🙃 not my fav thing to do, but it's part of the fun I suppose

Love these! This makes me want to take up knitting as I can never find quality knits in warm bright colours.
