Bookish
This super easy cardigan is knit in one piece from the bottom up. Choose to knit yours without seams or with one shoulder / top of sleeve seam (if you are like me and don’t love knitting sleeves in the round). There is no shaping at the sides, armholes or neck, only at the shoulders.
The story
Bookish, the shorter version of the Pourmoi Cardigan is knit with three strands of yarn held together. I was using up some of my stash. Lace weight, fingering and fingering mohair/silk are held together. The variegated colors of both lace weight strands add complexity while remaining subtle.
