Hi friends!

I'm excited to share my finished #205 Two Way Wrap Cardigan with you today!
Picture
The yarn I used is KnitPicks Simply Alpaca in the colorway Alaina.

The pattern is #205 Two Way Wrap Cardigan by SweaterBabe on Ravelry.​

This sweater, true to it's name, can be worn two ways. Here it is upside down...or, right side up?

The pattern was well written and easy to use. I only had one issue with this guy and it was easily solved; the instructions for the neck band don't specify whether to use a loose or basic bind off. I used a basic bind off and it was a mistake! the neck band hung tightly across the back of my neck like a rope and was very uncomfortable, and when flipped upside down the garment did not drape nicely. I took the neck band out and bound it off with a yarn over bind off and all was well. 

I'm pumped I was able to finish this sweater before the weather really starts heating up. This way I can live in it for the rest of Spring! 

What do you think of the finished product? Is this a pattern you would try?
