Knitting: Cardigan
Inspired by the structured and fitted cardigans of the 1940’s. Complete with elbow-length bell sleeves, a peplum with garter stitch detail, garter stitch saddle shoulders, and a scooped neckline. The peplum increases at three points, and incorporated into garter stitch triangles located at the sides of the hips and the center back.
Knitting: Cardigan
A Maile Sweater for grown-ups. It’s cute and comfortable and warm without being overly bulky. Looking at everyone’s baby Mailes, I’ve eliminated the lace at the bottom hem, but if anybody would like it back, let me know!
Knitting: Beret, Tam
The pattern calls for only about 50 yards of CC, so it’s a great way to use up any tiny bits of yarn you have leftover. It’s intended to fit loosely and comfortably on your head, though the colorwork around the brim makes it tight enough to stay on.
