Starting my first cardigan

My progress after one night

Yikes!  I can’t believe I am starting my first cardigan.  It’s kind of overwhelming.  But here goes!  To see my project on Ravelry, click here: http://ravel.me/jen52/stqx4

I have chosen to knit the Cerisera cardigan,(Ravelry link here) listed as “Advanced Beginner”.  It seems doable for someone at my skill level.  I want a nice cardigan that’s not too plain, but not too complicated, either.  This looks like it fits the bill.   But after beginning it last night, I am hoping it’s not too advanced for me.  So far it’s been challenging but not too hard to figure out… let’s hope it stays that way.

I am using Knit Picks CotLin yarn in Cashew.  It’s a blend of cotton and linen, so I’m hoping it will make for a light fabric appropriate for all seasons and have a nice drape.

Here are the initial pics – less than 24 hours in!
