Twinkle's Best Friend Cardigan

As described here, I finished this wonderful Best Friend Cardigan in one day last Saturday. Yesterday I finally managed to have a photo taken of this little wonder. Like with my first Twinkle knit I'm absolutely thrilled with this one - and the immensely bright purple colour of the Cascade Magnum yarn (the colour is brighter than the photo gives it credit for). Like the original yarn - Twinkle's Soft Chunky - the Cascade Magnum is hard to get your hands on in Europe. I bought it on a special order at wollbox.de. Here's a link to my cardigan on Ravelry.

It's my second Twinkle knit, but definitely not my last!

Den klæder dig virkelig godt! I passer smukt til hinanden. Og så er jeg stadig imponeret over den hurtighed, den er strikket med ;)

BTW, wollbox will be selling Magnum from this September on regularly through their site. They'll only have about 12 colours at the beginning. If you have a particular one that you'd like to have, you can just email them (till 25th of July) and they might add it to their selection. They'll have white and dark grey - that was my choice. ;-)
