Granny square cardigan

I have been working on granny squares since the end of October (Halloween day to be exact). I know I made some mistakes, but I decided to keep the mistakes consistent and enough squares to make a cardigan. 


The front view and the back view are very different, and I kind of like it that way. 

I have learned a lot about what to do and what not to do when I was making all the granny squares. And since most of the yarn was gifts or donations (?) from many of my friends, I really feel the warmth wearing this cardigan. Most of the yarn was real wool or equivalent. There's not much synthetic fibres in this entire thing. Maybe a little bit because some of the yarn had some as sock yarn.
