Maybe a tortoise shell buttons with hues of grey and that caramel brown would be nice? Looking forward to seeing what you pick :)

[@Kpup]

I just recently finished the Eva cardigan in Kelly green and I used a brown tortoiseshell colored button. I think that would look good on your cardigan too!

[@joyandknitting]

Oh my gosh the Kelly green sounds beautiful! I am obsessed with the pattern!!!

[@joyandknitting]

Also thank you for the input :)

[@gingerglitter4ever]

omg your eva cardigan looks soooo crisp

[@joyandknitting]

Thank you 😝 I give credit to this yarn lol

[@neenaj365]

There’s a @Nimbleneedles tutorial that shows how alternative use of “traditional” stitches are actually possible and beautiful.
Your raglan lines on that plain tee are lovely and I’m going to switch up my M1L/M1Rs in future for certain things!

[@joyandknitting]

I love that :) I will definitely check it out! I love nimbleneedles

M1L front to back M1R back to front

[@IvyCol1]

I like the idea of a caramel color - the color of your belt would look really nice with such a cool sweater.

[@strickmausi]

I always remember the M1 like this: M1L the picked up stitch is mounted from right to left on the needle (like it “looks” to the left) and the other way around for the M1R! I heard that in a video sometime and boy it changed my life.

[@24567423ify]

I always think of Stephen West saying “I left the front door open” and “be right back.” That helps me get it mounted correctly and then I knit through the opposite.

[@joyandknitting]

Thanks exactly what I’ve been doing now! I just hear his words in my head when I’m struggling to remember 😝

[@HannePetersen-sp3qx]

So Nice to follow your knitting. I can see that you Are fond of Skandinavien designers. Do you know the knitting magasin Laine? It is made in Findland but translatet to english. It is about nordic designers within knitting. Stephen West is a great, you can learn a lot from his videos. But also Kimmie Munkholm is great. She is danish and her videos is danish, but she show how to do different part in Petiteknits designs.

[@joyandknitting]

I will add it to my list to check out :) thank you!!

This is the tutorial I've been using for m1r and m1l!

[@oliviataylor6563]

For Sari Nordlund's pattern, Maybe you could try placing stitch markers between the lace pattern repeats. It's still very pretty. 😊

[@joyandknitting]

Thank you for the advice :) I had an easier time on the second side of the front, but struggling in the back now! lol

[@ShirleyLaVerne]

M1L is front to back knitted through the back loop. M1R is back to front knitted through the front loop. ruclips.net/video/L_Hu5d6ExdM/видео.htmlsi=zPFxEAumACs7AQ5l

I would do dark chocolate brown buttons.
I think black wouldn't be as nice on a navy background
And I think light brown would stand out too much and have too much of a warm undertone.

[@joyandknitting]

Thank you so much for the input :) It’s so hard to choose!
