Caddo
Caddo, a lovely sleeveless top with a striking lace motif on both the front and back, is the perfect lightweight shirt for hot summer days. It was inspired by the image of bright sunshine streaming through long strands of Spanish moss. Worked in the round from the bottom up, there’s no worry of getting stuck on sleeve island with this pattern!
This pattern, along with ten more Texas-inspired designs, can be found in issue ten of Nomadic Knits, which is available now. To order a physical copy, complete with stunning photos printed on 150 pages of beautiful matte paper, along with a Ravelry download code, visit your favorite local yarn shop or the Nomadic Knits website.
