RozemarijnResult after one week. <br> It was my first time using this technique for the border. So the border itself alone took 3 days. But I am happy with the results <br> I learned knitting when I was 6-7 years old. But after I left the Steinerschool I didn't knit that much anymore. I remember making a stola/shawl when I was 18. But that must be the only thing. I learned how to sew and that became my number one hobby. But when I got sick and I spent most of my time in the sofa I tried it again. Sadly enough I noticed it became to painful for my shoulders. So I switched to crocheting. I made many stuffed toys and shawls over the years. And then the cable needles became popular. I tried it and what a relief. It is so much more comfortable for my shoulders. So, new hobby/addiction unlocked. And busy with my first cardigan. <br> I hope to make a few cardigans this year. I love the process. But also as a statement against the ultra fast fashion. I sew most of my clothes. But wool cardigans, I still bought them. In theory I have enough clothes. But since knitting goes very slow, I am going to try to go slow and steady to make a full me made wardrobe. It will take years. But I enjoy the process. I have enough clothes for now, but I can replace pieces that get worn out by handmade items. <br> Pattern is "Fabienne" by Filcolana<br> Yarn is drops Lima <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slowfashion?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slowfashion</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/knitting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/handmade?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#handmade</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/dropsyarn?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#dropsyarn</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/knittedsweater?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knittedsweater</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/knitwork?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#knitwork</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slowandsteady?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slowandsteady</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/memadewardrobe?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#memadewardrobe</a>
