Retro Cardigan


This is a new cardigan that we are going to offer as a free pattern. It's done from the top down and is too darned fun to make! This one was made with two strands of Fourth of July and I have made another with one strand Fourth of July and one strand of Abundance. And you thought all I did was dye....silly you!
I will try to get a close up of the neck detail and a photo of the next cardigan too. I am still having camera issues.

Can you use Sonoma? ;) This is just the kind of sweater I've been looking for.

yes, I think you could use Sonoma....one or two strands - depending on the size you want.....and the structure of the fabric. This will be a sweater that I'll porbably have to help everyone with as far as sizing and yarn goes, because it can be done soooooooo many ways. You could make it loose and drapey or firm and structured.......
