Hi Knitters,I stitched my buttons on my Garter Yoke Cardigan. I love sewing the buttons on a new cardigan. It's so much fun to see the sweater all buttoned up. I found these buttons at the Sow's Ear last weekend. 
The shop had exactly nine buttons for my nine buttonholes. I knew they were perfection. Look how they bring out all of the tiny turquoise flecks in the tweed. It's a happy choice.
The first sleeve work is coming along fine. Very soon it will be complete. Oh, how I am loving the sweater knitting. I just can't seem to get enough.

Those buttons are absolutely perfect! Love it.
You knit sooooo fast. Takes me that long to make a simple hat. Love the sweater
I love the brown and turquoise contrast, you don't see it enough!
Great sweater. Perfect button choice. The color DOES bring out the teal flecks.
I love the buttons. I love how thay make the tweedy bits pop!
Very cute. The blue buttons make the sweater look completely different. They are a perfect match.
You knit so fast!
They really are the perfect color!
Love the buttons! Your sweater knitting as got me thinking that I may have to try knitting myself a sweater. Would you suggest knitting the Shalom or Garter Yoke cardi for a first sweater knit?
Thanks!
Jen G.,
I think either would be fine to start with. They are very similar in construction.
Have fun!!! susan
You are so speedy!!! I don't know how you do it with your kiddos and all of your other knitting projects!
The buttons bring out the colors in your cardi; what a great choice.
I couldn't help myself. After reading about and seeing your garter yoke and Soulemama's,I hunted through my stash and came up with the perfect heathered red.I'm almost finished with the yoke! Love that tweed and the buttons are perfect.
I really like how the buttons bring out the colors in the yarn.
What a cute sweater! Lovely yarn colors and perfect buttons!
