DRK Everyday Cardi - The Fibre Co. Arranmore Light
If I were Mr. Rogers, this is the sweater I would reach for every time I came back inside, or left to go outside, for that matter! This is the cardigan I grab for - to get cozy, to throw on as a light jacket, or to finish an outfit comfy enough for every day and polished enough for the office or date night. I hope it becomes your cardigan-for-everyday too!
The DRK (DreaReneeKnits) Everyday cardi is knit from the top down, beginning with the folded collar. It can be worn with either the knit or purl side facing out, with just a few simple tweaks to the directions (which are included in the pattern). The raglan “seams” from the yoke are carried all the way down to the hem of the cardigan. The body is knit flat, and the sleeves are knit in the round. The button band is worked using an applied double knit technique for a beautifully polished finish!
The kit includes The Fibre Co Arranmore Light. The kit does not include the pattern. You can purchase it on Ravelry.
Inspired by the breath-taking scenery of Ireland, Arranmore Light yarn is spun in a mill that traces its roots to the homespun tweed industry of 19th century County Donegal. This DK-weight yarn blends cashmere and silk with fine Merino wool to create an authentic tweed yarn in a color palette reminiscent of the wild Irish coastlands for makers who appreciate the best of luxury and tradition.
