Test knitting. Again.

Last year, after I failed to finish 2 tests for the Free Pattern Testers on Ravelry, I promised myself that I will never ever test knit again because it's so much stress when you have a deadline.

But then I got an earburn from a designer who launched a test for an adult version of her cute child's cardigan. I just couldn't resist.

I'm making it out of 2 colours of Alpaka Fashion and I will have to frog an FO (another test knit, I used to small needle to get gauge and the fabric is super stiff). Hoping I will have enough because I haven't even finished the ribbing and first skein is already knit up.

This is the swatch (yes, I swatched, and I even washed it and all):

frogging is never nice but I hope you'll have a lovely cardigan that you'll wear a lot

Frogging that one is actually a relieve, because I had no idea whatsoever what to do with it. :)
