Oh no! I’m so sorry to hear you both got struck with that terrible bug known as the flu. I’m glad you are up and out of bed but I hope you recover fully soon.
I love that wrap cardigan! I think you will have fun trying this new version out. It’s always fun trying something new. Even though the yarn is a bit on the thinner side I hope it continues to do well for you and you are able to finish with no problems. The other patterns look lovely too. Does wool ever bother your skin or make you itch? If I ever make anything with wool I would have to sew in a fabric lining because it makes me itch so much. I have seen so many wool yarns I want to work with.
Tank youuuuu <3 My husband is already better and I am a bit too :-)
The yarn behaves okeyish, it tore once, but after this it was good. But it is hard to see the stitches with all the fluffiness :-D
And with the wool content. I am not very sensible with my skin, but my husband has the same problem as you. So, I mostly use some wool/acrylic blends or other non-itchy yarns. Besides pure wool is often much to expensive (as the wool I quoted in the post)
Do you also react to alpaca or llama wool? I think I read, the problem with wool is mostly the lanolin and alpaca and llama do not contain lanolin. But their wool is even more expensive 😅
