So here is the Mr. Greenjeans cardigan blocked and buttoned. I tried taking photos outside thinking that natural sun light would show the true color better. It does and it doesn't. The photos where the sun is shining directly on the yarm make it seem teal. The yarn is not teal, it is green with a slight bit of blue in it.
Here's a close up of the cables and the button. I found the button today at Hobby Lobby. It is slightly translucent so some of the green color shows through the button. This is not a good representation of the color at all. Too much sunshine!
I did try to take some photos of the cardigan on me, but they did not turn out very well. Plus, it really doesn't fit me very well either. Being the pear shape that I am, the top is too big and the bottom almost fits. I need to learn to alter patterns to fit my body type. Will I wear this sweater??? Maybe around the house. It is very warm and snuggly. It will be a good sweater to cozy up on the couch reading a book in cold weather.
