Grommet Eyelet Ridge Cardi Vest
Grommet is a cap sleeved cardigan-vest hybrid that is knit entirely in one piece with no finishing! The soft hand of this wool, llama and silk blend is a dream to knit with and, using a large needle size, you are sure to speed through this project. The result is a garment with a lovely drape and a flattering silhouette for any body type.
Skill Level: Uses basic knit and purl, simple lace eyelet row, and long-tail cast on (to make tidy edges that need no applied border). This project is an ideal first-time sweater as it knit in bulky yarn and requires no seaming. Help videos available at www.knittinghelp.com
