Cypress Cove
Cypress Cove is a design built directly into CustomFit, which means that each Cypress Cove pattern is written specifically to your choice of gauge and size.
Cypress Cove is a versatile, transitional open cardigan with a narrow neckline and fold-over garter stitch collar. I’ve worked it in a cozy 100% BFL wool with a beautiful sheen, but it would work equally well in many other materials too - from linens to cotton blends to a drapey silk blend.
Shown with 3/4 sleeves and a mid-hip length, CustomFit allows you to choose your own sleeve and hip lengths - so your Cypress Cove will be perfect for you. This is an hourglass design with waist and bust shaping, but the waist shaping is located on the back only for a clean-fronted look.
I knit this sampel in Knitting Boutique Mattawoman, a DK-weight 100% BFL yarn in the color “Chocolate”. I preferred a gauge of 5.5 stitches to the inch. But CustomFit will create your pattern to the gauge you specify - and for that reason, it’s difficult to give any kind of yardage advice! To estimate how much yarn you’ll need, I strongly recommend the “Stashbot” app or pamphlet by Hannah Fettig.
