The Schoharie Creek Cardi by Army of Knitters
Every time I see a sweater designed in our yarns, it brings a big silly grin to my face. There are so few out there, most likely because sweaters in our yarns can be too heavy due to the bulky gauge. They have to be thought out perfectly to avoid this. Heather Dixon of Army of Knitters, has done just that and created a beautiful sweater that stripes our handspun yarn with a lighter yarn from Be Sweet. The cardi is light and airy with a trapeze shaped skirt and cinched waist, a shape I'm loving right now. For the size small, the pattern calls for 1 skein of our Daisy Chain yarn & 9 skeins of Be Sweet's. Be sure to pick up your pattern on Ravelry here.
