It took me two weeks for the sleeves, but it is done. Not blocked yet, but I couldn’t wait to show the finished product. It was an enjoyable experience that pushed me out of my comfort zone.

1 manche de faite. C'est très long, je ne suis pas sûre d'avoir terminé la seconde vendredi. J'aime de plus en plus ce cardigan, je le referais peut-être dans d'autres couleurs

You’ve probably guessed what this clue is about since there isn’t much left to do. 🫣 It might not feel as exciting as the earlier clues, and for some of you, it might even mean there’s not much to work on—especially if your row gauge was on the longer side. If that’s the case, think of this as a little breather before the big finale. 🙂 But if you’re doing the longer version (like I did!) or your row gauge is tighter, you’ll have plenty of knitting to keep you busy until the next clue comes out. 🧶 Right now, over 420 projects have made it past Clue 1 on Skool, with new people still joining in! Plus, 175 have already finished Clue 4, and lots of you sharing your progress with big smiles, and honestly, nothing makes me happier! If you’ve already got the pattern, check your inbox or refresh your Ravelry library to grab the Clue 5 file. If you haven’t joined yet, you can get the pattern here. No new tutorials this time! For those who had issues with playing the videos recently, I hope that’s sorted now. Unfortunately, I couldn’t get much help from Loom support, but if you’re still having trouble, shoot me a DM with your device, OS version, browser (and version), and your general location (just the town is fine). 🙏 Alright, let’s get knitting! 💪

It's amazing to see your projects become more and more beautiful with every clue! Right now here on Skool, we have 400 projects finished with Clue 1, 350 with Clue 2, and over 200 progress photos posted for Clue 3! I especially love seeing the photos of you modelling your work with proud smiles, that always makes my day! ❤️ Before we move on to Clue 4, I wanted to share a fun little thing I noticed yesterday. I've been keeping a note of everyone making two versions (there are 20 of you so far!), and I realized that two of those people have the same name. What a one-in-a-million coincidence! Shoutout to @Susan Evans and @Susan Evans 🥂 Clue 4 is here, and it comes with a fun new texture! I hope you’ll love adding this little stitch pattern to your projects as much as I did. I’ve already used it in a few of my recent designs, so of course, I had to include it in this one too. 😅 If you already have the pattern, check your inbox for the update or refresh your Ravelry library to download the Clue 4 file. If you haven’t joined yet but would like to, you can get the pattern here. I’ve also added some new tutorials for Clue 4 in the Rujuu course. Just head to the Classroom tab to check them out! Bring on the stunning photos and let me know if you’re going straight or shaped!! 🤩
