Notes

This pattern needed a serious cosmetic update ;)
Just did it! Sept 18th/2013.

About the pattern
Flyaway is worked from the top down, seamlessly. The only small seams you’ll need to sew are the ones at the sides of the pockets.
The set-in sleeves are worked also from the top down in the round.
Small elongated cables run down your fronts and back to the waist, and then give space to the stockinette stitch body with an A-line-shape.
The pockets make it super comfortable for every day’s wear. You know? You need somewhere to keep your keys, cell phone and a toy car for the boys… :D
Little details keep the knitting interesting at all times: Cables, pockets, textured band…
And have fun picking your buttons!

About the yarn
This yarn is (in my humble opinion) maybe the perfect yarn. The weight is just what you need to make anything work. That yarn you can use for almost any project…
The cables pop up beautifully, without the yarn being too stiff. Just the right amount of twist to make it super drapey.
This can definitely be my workhorse yarn…
