Ultra-light and decadently easy, this little cardi may be your favourite layering piece for those cool spring evenings. Simple lace lines the front and cuffs, while the raglan sleeves emphasize the breezy nature of the slightly cropped shape.

Dancy is included in the Fresh-Squeezed collection from SweetGeorgia Yarns.
Biting into a ripe strawberry or a plump little Clementine is, at the core, wholesome. Good for us. Those bright beauties, the essence of lightness, comfort, and delight, are balms for the spirit. Just like summers laying in the grass, or feeling the sun on our faces, or drinking a fruity beverage. You could say knitting is like that: good for you.

That vivid “goodness” is the inspiration behind this collection. Perfectly suited for your warm weather forays into the orange groves, these lightweight pieces promise easy joy and decadent comfort. You’ll find a bit of lace, fun shapes, and bold hues that pull you into the all the emotion found at the lemonade stand. Fun, colourful, and wholly good for you.
