In Maine, a camp is a rustic cabin on a lake or in the woods - the perfect place to settle by the fire and knit! This cardigan features a patterned yoke and bottom band with a fun mix of ribbing, garter stitch, and 1/1 cables. It will be your go- to outdoor sweater for warmth and North Wood's style. This is an engaging pattern for the experienced knitter. The construction is nearly seamless, with top-down set-in sleeves picked up from the armholes and worked with short row caps. The pattern is 8 pages long and includes 7 sizes, a full schematic, and charts for pattern areas. If you prefer not to work from charts, an additional 4 page pdf of the written out directions for the pattern areas should be downloaded when you download your pattern. The pattern has had all sizes test knit and has been professionally tech edited to be clear and free of errors. I have 2 other patterns with a matching motif: Cam's Camping Socks and Hunting Season Hat. Bring them all to camp!* This kit comes with 7 skeins of yarn. This kit includes the digital pattern and yarn required.
