Inspired by the striated wood cladding on the terraces of the Sokol Blosser Winery tasting room just an hour from the Oregon Coast, the Stria Cardigan celebrates the architectural beauty of clean lines. The angled striae create flattering visuals at the front of the body; keeping the project interesting without being fussy. The timeless shape and style, combined with stunning modern architectural lines bring 1940’s casual into the 21st century.

Worn with jeans, capris, a cotton dress or your favorite a-line skirt, the Stria Cardigan is the ideal classic cardi.

Stria is knit top-down, seamless, with raglan construction and a slipped-stitch design mirrored diagonally down the front panels. It is designed with minimal ease.

Stria has been recently updated as of 8/6/16 with a sleek new look and the removal of size 32.

If making a yarn substitution -- be strategic. Find a substitute that matches Kenzie’s yardage per gram (160 yards per 50g) - even though Kenzie can be knit as a worsted, in this instance it is being knit more as a DK.

See a tutorial for working the slipped stitch design here.

9 (9, 10, 11, 11, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14) skeins Kenzie by Skacel (1240 - 2240 yards)

Note: Kenzie is listed as a worsted, but it is technically a more of a DK. Keep this in mind if you are using a substitute for Kenzie. Keep in mind that substitutions may provide different results.
