I would have watched this beautiful video that shows off that stunning cardie! I'm in love with it!!! Those cables and a work of art. It took me awhile since I was knitting the Creery sweater for my sister. One memory that I hold dear and sacred is when my mother came to my 2nd grade class and brought my brand new baby sister (the same one as the sweater I'm making) and I felt pride, joy, and a deep bond to my family. We are tighter than ever since our mother passed 6 years ago. I'll never forget that feeling and the feeling of accomplishment when I knit or crochet a pattern from you and your master designers. Thank you for making my life so enriched and sacred. Love and hugs!

There have been many special moments and memories to cling to as we’ve traveled this amazing country but one from my childhood is especially strong. When we would travel to see my grandmother we would come in from there top of a mountain. Even though I never lived there, it always felt in my heart like “coming home” when the scene of the valley and the town came into view. 💕

Hi sweet Chandi! My special memory is when I held my baby girl for the first time. It was 36 years ago and I remember it like it was yesterday!!!! This pattern is gorgeous

I also play piano. My memory is when I was FINALLY able to play piano with both hands! A sweater design named after a musical concept! I love cables. Gotta make this along with everything else on my queue.

Beautiful cardigan, thank you for sharing it with us. I'm always learning something new here and I love it 😊. So many memories I have, of places, friends, family. The ones I love the most are hearing my kids crying when born, the first time finally seeing them, hugging them and seeing my parents with a happy Sparkl in their eyes and the traveling. My mom installed in us that we have to know our own country, your home, before exploring the world and every weekend we'll be traveling, north, south, east and west. I think we got to know every hill and creek, lakes, beaches, forests and of course the desert in my home country. I have great parents and my hope is that my kids will have the same feelings towards us when they grow older. Thank you Chandi 💞

Aww, I love that so much! Thank you for sharing. 💙

Interesting cardigan!!!just knitting and crocheting takes me back to my childhood memories when my mom was teaching me how to knit/crochet during our school winter break “3 months of winter break back home”.

I have been sewing for years and I’ve never seen the button attached in this manner! I am soooooo using this from now on! I cannot believe this is new to me! And why I didn’t think of it myself! Mind blown! Lol! Thanks for sharing!

so beautiful person and soul u are.....stay like this forewer:-) love you and your masterpiece,Pina

I love this sweater! Such a sweet name, too -rubato. A memory I have is laying on the floor under my mom's sewing machine as she sewed. I would get up and watch the fabric feed through, and that is how I learned to sew! Just by watching her hands, how she adjusted and turned the fabric, the sound of the pedal starting and stopping. She never really taught me and had me practice much, but then when I had a daughter, I had fun making her tiny baby skirts and dresses, aprons, and now matching clothes for us and even for my 2 girls now. ❤️ And - how amazing that you know piano too! You are very talented!

Aww, that's a wonderful memory. Thank you for sharing. 🩷

Wow! This is definitely one I'll want to add to my wardrobe. A memory... there's the first time I saw the arches in Utah, or the Oregon coast, or the Glaciers in Montana. Or the first time I held my hedgehog (she did NOT like me at the time, but now all she ever wants is to snuggle in my shirt). Meeting my first friend in school as a kid (and we're still friends 28 years later!)

Thank you for the tutorial. I love learning new things. Learning how to knit is one of my favorite memories. My best friend in HS taught me.

Hello beautiful Chandi… Yesterday was one of those times you spoke of. A very short version… My daughter suffered from depression & self harm through her high school years which also lead to her being “Baker Acted” . Anyway last year she graduated high school with the mindset that she would never want to go to college. Ever. Fast forward a year later & she is thriving; so much in fact she graduated a small college as a dental assistant!!!❤❤❤❤ yesterday was her pinning ceremony which was a great moment in her life and we celebrated with her. I simply did not want the day to end! I will remember it always. ❤❤❤❤❤

Hi Chandy, I’ve nit been here in such a long time and it’s so good to see you again. Beautiful sweater.

❤❤❤ Beautiful as usual. Thank you dear for the pattern and the tutorial. ❤❤❤

Beautiful sweater. I love working cables and what they add to a project.

What a beautiful cardigan! I'm definitely adding this to my list of EFA designs to make! Also, I just love listening to your memories, especially the ones from growing up in Alaska. You have a way of relating them that whisks me off with them to times and places that sound so wonderful. Thank you. A memory I cherish is from the last time I was home with my folks (feels like forever ago now). As my Mom sat knitting, she listened as I read to her from the book To Knit or Not to Knit (a wonderful little book full of funny and touching stories with knitting at the centre of them). We laughed together, cried together, shared memories of days gone by, and built innumerable memories throughout the many sometimes gut-wrenchingly heartbreaking and all to relatable stories in the book. The common thread throughout the book was the connections we make to those we love through knitting and the unbreakable bonds that form as you spend the hours of your life developing them through a shared love of the craft. After one particularly moving story with that theme, which I could barely get though for the tears, we both stopped -- Mom resting her knitting on her lap and, I, the book -- and realised that this is what we were doing. Right there, in my parents living room. Mom knitting while I read to her about knitting. Both of us stopping occasionally to chat about new ideas or progress we were making on various projects -- or new things we wanted to try or learn. Like the mighty rush of a wave, the weight of that realisation overwhelmed us both. I took a metal photograph of that moment, which seemed so perfectly to encapsulate all the memories we'd made before and all those to come, and it is a memory -- rich and full of so much more than that moment -- that I'll hold onto for all my days.

Hi Chandi. Is there anything you can't do?! I envy your ability to deal with life in such a tranquil way. You have reminded me that I want to learn to play the piano, so thank you for that. Lovely pattern too. Another one for the list!! Take care!

I remember as well that my grandmother told me to wrap the thread around the button to raise it up. Normally I do button bands with crochet because it is WAY easier... I am often finishing off my knitted pieces with crocheted lace borders as well. But I think I will try those buttonholes in my next project. 😊

Happy Sunday! Such a lovely cardigan. I haven't knitted one nor anything requiring buttons in such a long time. Time to remedy that! I love your technique for sewing on the buttons especially no thread ends on the wrong side. Thanks.

Thanks you Chandi for sharing this beautiful cardigan your are so beautiful I love all your yarns and color so beautiful 🎉🎉

This sweater is so pretty. I will definitely be making this one.

Ooh this is so beautiful! I have never tried cables.. Tho I love everything about them I find them intimidating 😢 This style of cardigan is my favorite....look at all those yummy cables❤😮 Love Friday's! I will print up my copy and one day this is going to be hanging in my closet ready to wear 😁🤞

Happy to see you again! I am recovering from a stroke. As a result, i have lost all my possessions, including my yarn. Maybe i will get to buy some again.

This is lovely! Thanks once again for your generosity!

1 moment I hold very dear to my heart is when we went to Hawaii and son was so little. But he would go on his own to see the ocean and then immediately run back to us and hug us since he found us. The scenery and those moments of love I will always remember.

I have just finished my first sweater yesterday and have been looking for pattern that has cables.I absolutely love this.I think I'm gonna cast this on very soon inshaallah

Great content ! Something I’ve been wanting to learn in this past year . Thank you ❤🧶💫

love the design, i do like both a cardigan and cables.

Thank you for this very helpful video, Chandi! These vital rules of thumb for constructing the button/buttonhole bands are now super easy for me to remember!

So Stunning! Thank you Chandi!

Beautiful sweater. Thanks so much for the tutorial on how to do the button bands. I’ve not done that yet. It seems scary to me so I’ve never tried it. This may be the sweater I do my first button bands.😮 🧶

Hi Chandi, This is such a lovely cardigan and as usual an informative tutorial; I would like to try to make this cardigan. Thanks 😊

Thank you Emma for this beautifully designed cardigan❤thank you Chandi ~ you look stunning as always😊

Hi Chandy. I love your videos. I can’t really knit. I’ve tried just basic knitting stitches. I crochet. But I really wanted you to know how wonderful your videos are. Hugs.

Hi Chandi. This is such a beautiful cardigan. Thanks to Emma for her lovely design. This video evokes 2 memories for me. When my parents took us to Hawaii, outside of the glass sliding doors a little way off was a beautiful circular inlet that went out to the ocean. One night I was outside looking at the inlet and the palm trees were on the right side were bending over the water. The moon was magnificent that night, high in the sky and reflecting on the water. It was breathtaking and I’ve never forgotten that precious moment. It was either in Kauai or Maui. I can’t remember which but my thought is Kauai. My sister has the album so I’ll have to look the next time I see her. The other memory is my mom’s button basket. It was circular I’d say about 8 inches in diameter with a cover. Brown tones. She must have gotten rid of it when they moved but I remember it from my childhood. Great memories. Thanks for reminding me today to reminisce. And thank you for another great tutorial! Have a wonderful weekend!❤️❤️

Beautiful cardigan! I always look forward to Fridays for your tutorials and positive energy!

Beautiful Sweater!❤ thank you for showing how to do a button hole band. It’s been a while knitted anything that calls for buttons.

Thank you for another beautiful pattern! One of my favorite memories is going to the Rhinebeck Sheep and Wool festival in NY held in October. Not only do I get to be surrounded by glorious yarns in a beautiful Catskills setting but I also get to see all the folks who are modeling their latest fiber creations. We’ve moved from that area, but I still have commemorative sweatshirts that I’ve collected over my years of attending to remind me of that special festival!

Perfect sweater for fall and the drape is amazing. Loving the button guide gadget. I know the tape measure works. However, there are some days when the brain cells need a bit of a break.

❤️❤️❤️ so beautiful as always

I love, love, live it!!!!❤❤❤

Lovely sweater...if/when I make this, I'll do the band without holes... I never button sweaters anyway!! 😂🤣

Wonderful tutorial, thank you very very much! And it's a beautiful sweater.

grazie grazie grazie grazie!

Lovely ❤

Absolutely beautiful cardigan! I am not at intermediate level unfortunately. I am going to download pattern so I can knit this amazing, delicate pattern! ❤

Sitting here doing the moss stitch section of the Conjure blanket, while you're going knit, purl, knit, purl, was not the greatest decision I ever made 😂 I'm definitely getting this pattern as well, I've been looking for a nice sweater to make now that the weather is getting colder here in Sweden.

ευγε!!!!

I momenti. piu' belli per me ' sono stati quando ho dato alla luce le mie figlie Sara' scontato ma:e' stato come un miracolo dopo l'altro

Moongleam fingering is my very favourite yarn. The blend of cotton and silk is perfect for me. Keep up the amazing work!

I love the sweater, and the tutorial and I ADORE the buttons! Where did you get them? :)

Hi, thanks for your question. I believe those are from a local fabric store. The buttons Emma Butram used for her version were from Hobby Lobby. I hope this answers your question. 💕

Love this cardigan. Is it possible to use sport weight yarn to knit this pattern? I remember sitting on a patio on a cruise ship and sailing through a fiord in New Zealand viewing all the magnificent waterfalls and the beautiful scenery.

I think that should be possible but please make a swatch and check your gauge. Adjust your needle size if necessary or decide to make a smaller size depending on your gauge. I hope this is helpful. 💕

I saw this on raverly and was thinking of making this with 4ply cotton. Worried about the cables I have not done traditional cables before.

@expreesionfiberarts. I have nearly completed, but I am stuck at the increasing stiches for the arms. Buy pattern is generally easy to follow

You should have done the second row. When making the hole.

The row after making the k2tog and yo you just pretend those stitches are just regular stitches the same as in the ribbing pattern before. So you knit the knits and purl the purls. I hope this makes sense. 💙
