*What makes a cardigan, Mr. Lebowski? *

Knowing almost nothing about knitting before I started this project, I spent many months trying to recreate the original as faithfully as possible. And you can try it yourself as well :)

CAVEAT: I am not a designer, the pattern is only available in one size, and it can be a pretty difficult knit at times.

BUT: it's free, and I can answer questions if you try your hands at making it!

What do you mean “brought it bowling”?

I didn’t rent it shoes.

I’m not buying it a fucking beer.

He’s not gonna take your fucking turn, Dude.

Three thousand years of beautiful tradition, from Moses to Sandy Koufax--YOU'RE GODDAMN RIGHT I LIVE IN THE PAST!

Note to recommended amount of yarn: "I have ripped out and restarted this project so many times that I’ve had to discard yarn (mostly beige) that was too short or too damaged to use. I have no idea how much I discarded, but maybe one or two skeinsworth of yarn?"

You're a legend.

Nice sweater, dude

Oh man. That's amazing.

[-] turddle@lemmy.world 4 points 5 months ago

Wow that’s right on! I got myself a Pendleton and cheese from the compliments on it all the time.

If I could follow up with “yeah I made it” I think my cheeks would burst from happiness. Great job, Dude!!
