Amy Herzog created seven great stripe combinations for the Striped Cardigan Option. The KAL will feature Summer Solstice, an autumn-based brown heather, mixed with a little end of summer volcano and cream. Feel free to make of Amy’s other Options, or choose a main color you love - then add a complimentary shade and pop color to finish.

The KAL will run from October - December 2015. Helpful media will include blog posts, Ravelry and Facebook postings, video tips, and fit/customization guidance from Amy, who will be making her own version of the textured pullover, in the color 109 Grit.
