Notes

These are leftover yarns from a few other projects. This cardigan is a personal variation on Jane Thornley’s Blue Skies Over Sienna cardigan pattern. I used random ribbing at the waist only, and tapered the sleeves.

Jane’s patterns are very addictive because you can’t wait to get to the next yarn/color/texture which changes every few rows. The patterns really allow you to focus on being creative rather than the drudgery of technical knitting.
