Update on availability
Summer Sky will be re-worked and improved with a full tech edit, new charts and layout, etc. and will be available for sale once complete - Timeline undetermined; this project is currently on hold due to other priorities, but I do plan to come back to it.

In the meantime, the free PDF with the pattern as published in MagKnits is now available with corrections. I will not be posting it for download as I consider it to be a draft version, but will be happy to send it along upon request.

Once the pattern is complete and offered for sale, the free version will no longer be available. If seeking a copy of the free version, please PM me with your email address.

Thanks for your support!

The summer sky can be hard on shoulders bared by tanks and sundresses. Cover up with this slip of a cardigan or bring the sky inside to take the chill off an air conditioned room. Plenty of pattern interest is provided by clever use of short-rows and strategically placed increases and decreases. Shaped to cover your shoulders, but show a bit of collarbone, Summer Sky would be lovely in linen, silk, or cotton; or perhaps in wool with extended sleeves for warmth beneath a winter sky.
