Colourful cardigan

This cardigan has flown off the needles. It took about a month from start to finish, and for me that is pretty fast. It is knit entirely in moss stitch with a line of brioch stitch on both front sides.

I made it on 5.0 mm needles with the yarn held double. The yarn is Scheepjes Invicta Colour with different colours on the skein. Since I worked with two threads, I tried to have the colour of the two strands of yarns as different as possible, so the colours would blend into each other nicely.

The cardigan was knit in the round from the bottom up until I reached the armholes, and has set-in sleeves.
