Bring on Fall: Agnes Cardigan
In 2011, I knit what would become a favorite sweater of mine. Agnes, in cozy Quince and Co Puffin is a classic top-down raglan pullover with a little something extra…contrast-lined pockets! At 3 sts an inch, it flies off the needles. The original Agnes pattern is available here: Agnes
So, I finally knit what I had considered for years, a cardigan version. It features the similar construction, still has those pockets, with just a bit more length in the body. This yarn is so warm that this piece makes a great outerwear layer on a chilly fall day. The Agnes Cardigan is now on Ravelry and is $2 off (no code needed) until 9/15: Agnes Cardigan

New Pattern: Pines Cardigan
When your handknit loving 3-year-old asks you to knit her a sweater, how can you say no?
My daughter V spotted some dark blue Berroco Remix in my tiny stash and requested a “blue sweater with a little bit of buttons”, so I thought it’d be a good opportunity to design a new sweater for babies and small children. The Pines Cardigan is knit from the bottom up with just 2 tiny underarm seams, and is sized from newborn to a children’s size 6. It, and the other patterns in my Ravelry store, is 40% off (no code needed) until February 12th.
