Audrey with Holes

Finally finished my cashmere Audrey cardigan (this is my second Audrey, I love the pattern)!

I changed her a bit with an all over pattern and a much smaller gauge which was at times tough going but the light, soft and warm result was worth it.

I also finally committed to a colour for the dining room! I actually woke up yesterday morning (D Day) with a knot in my stomach because I knew I had to make a final choice! It's beyond ridiculous the emotional contortions that this has had me in (very unlike me).

The Historian has been building a "wine robe" (basically a wine cellar in a custom-built corner cupboard in the dining room) . . . we're calling it NARNIA. Anyway, because of the way it is built we had to paint the wall above it before going any further, hence my D(ecision) Day. I chose a pale grey blue (it's called Grey Cloud). I think I made the right choice . . .
It's none of these, ha ha!

  1. I do like this version of Audrey, I love the detail on the neck. Finger's crossed that you chose the right shade of grey- I'm sure you have as you have a good eye for colour!
    P.S Thank you!

  2. That Audrey is BEA-U-TI-FUL! Wow, really. I wouldn't be surprised to see it in a Twist newsletter someday. Hmmm, maybe I'll suggest it to Kate! :)
