Thank you! : ) I did the rough sketch in Procreate and the rendering in CSP!
I don’t keep track on how long a drawing takes me, but it’s been a few days on-and-off working on it, so I’d say like 10ish hours?

This is a great store, thank you for sharing! And seems like they might also ship to my place (tho probably at horrendous shipping rates, I’ll have to check on that hahah) Either way it’s good to get an overview of available yarns, so really thanks a lot!
Thank you so much for your help! May I ask, do you see any way to achieve the patterns gauge with 8sts x 6rows on 4"x4" with 6mm hook? It says with front loop stitches, does that actually make a huge difference? I did make a test patch, but had double the gauge size (16sts x 12rows). Now, it looks nice this way, but after using up a whole skein to estimate the needed yarn, I realized it would actually be more than ~210€ worth of it, which just seems so much to me 😅 but that’s why I’m asking, I have actually no idea how much is usually needed.
Thank you so much! Yea unfortunately they don’t ship to my place : ( that’s like my main problem, I can’t seem to get the recommended yarns here. But from what y’all tell me the wool price is about what I have to expect for this project! (and the aran yarn I found isn’t much cheaper really)
Tho I have to admit, I have decided to go for a different cardigan now, one that doesn’t need as much material 😅 I’ve used up the wool skein I had to see how much I can make with it, and it turns out I would probably need more like over ~210€ worth of yarn (damn that nice looking floor length hahah). I want to get back to it later tho, when I’m more confident in my crocheting knowledge and have a bit of money on the side!
Thank you for your good luck wishes! When I finish one of the cardigans, I’m happy to share here!
Thank you, this is extremely helpful! I’ve never made a piece of clothing before, so I have a hard time telling how much it would cost. Even just knowing that this is generally about how much I have to spend is worth a lot! I was looking at cotton before actually, but neither online nor at the store I could really find colors I liked. And since they weren’t a lot cheaper, I thought I might as well pay a little more and get a color I really like.
Only the gauge has me really confused. From what I’ve looked up, I feel like 8sts x 6rows is very little for 10x10cm, with the wool I got for testing I would need twice as much.
Someone has mentioned this as well! I’ll definitely do some more research on how to do that kinda stuff because I really like that concept!
Will check them out, thanks!!
Yes I’m looking for a regular one with sleeves, but great tip anyway if no sleeves don’t matter for the certain use case, thank you!
That looks great too, thank you for sharing!
Oh I didn’t think it was that easy to do. Thank you for all the info, I’m going to research that a bit more!
Will definitely check it out, thank you!
I’ve looked them up a bit and I love the idea that they can also just be rewaxed! However, I gotta admit I think right now they are a bit too expensive for me. Most of them easily cost two or three times as much as the technical jackets I’ve been looking at. I will do some more research tho, and definitely keep that kind of clothing in mind just because I think it’s a really cool way to make them weatherproof
I didn’t even know fabrics like that exist, gonna look it up right away, thank you!
Damn this looks amazing, definitely gonna add it to the list of locations to visit! Places like that were exactly what I was hoping to see 👀
I honestly did underestimate how spread out everything is. People in this thread have already mentioned so many interesting places, seems I’ll have to plan a few more trips hahah Thank you for your suggestions as well! Love the idea of going to some of the islands by boat
What a stunning view! I’ll definitely have to get some good hiking gear it seems Thank you!!
I haven’t quite figured how to get around the place yet, but a bus tour like that honestly sounds great for someone like me who’s really bad at driving hahah Thank you for the suggestions!!
Thank you so much! I think now Edinburgh would be a great starting point for my first visit there. But I totally get you when you say you’ll need another trip just for the western side, I honestly underestimated how spread out all the cool places are hahah
This place looks incredible, just what I meant when I said I want to enjoy the landscapes there. Thank you!!
I wouldn’t say not good, I can use the same brushes etc. in Procreate as well. It’s more a personal preference of display-less tablet and keyboard! I use a ton of shortcuts in quick succession and found this doesn’t work too well in Procreate : )
