Printed Bamboo

With the discussion of what yarn to use for Printed Silk Cardigan, I almost forgot about this yarn I bought over ebay. It came at the right time (after waiting for more than 8 weeks). Off I went to knit a swatch, it came up to be slightly big. I went down a needle size and thought it would do.

So here's what you see. I knitted the fronts and back in one piece and they are waiting for the sleeves and neck bands.

And I just arrived on Sleevey Island.
