You look gorgeous in this! Such a nice vibrant colour, like an autumn leaf :)

Your cardigan looks super, great color! I also used this pattern (dark grey) just 2 days ago, but I am not very happy with the way the sleeves were inserted so they don’t stay in place while wearing.

I found the same problem. I think it is because they are just slits instead of actual armholes. The link below from immi seems like it would be a little better.
