Sarah has a new sweater

Meet Magnolia Chunky. Sarah used two skeins of Cascade Eco +
From Sarah
I wanted the bottom of the arm to look more puffed when it was hanging so I ended up using a regular 1x1 rib with 6mm needless and decreased an extra 2 stitches. This way the rib is more snug on my wrist which forces the fabric to hang. 
Only a skein and a half. 8 mm needless. The medium size.
What a great looking sweater!


The Modern Wrapper is a loose-fitting, easy-to-wear piece that is an eternal staple of our winter wardrobe. Whether you leave it as an open cardigan or seam the front, tunic-style, its relaxed, boxy shape makes it endlessly versatile and so, so comfortable! 
The Modern Wrapper is a pattern from Churchmouse Yarns. You can purchase the pattern in the store or on Ravelry.
We often love to wear the Modern Wrapper as a casual layer—a sort of 'round-the-house coat over a t-shirt and leggings or jeans. And if you must leave the house, it dresses up well. Just throw it on over a button-up blouse and add a stylish scarf. 
These versions of our Modern Wrapper—one open, the other seamed at the front—were both knit in Rowan Kid Classic—a worsted-weight yarn with great drape and warmth. Perfect to wrap up in!
Churchmouse's email came this morning and it was perfect timing. Ms. UPS brought in a box from Rowan this morning with two colours of Kid Classic.

The Toronto Knitters Frolic is Saturday April 25. I am busy planning the booth which includes looking back at last years booth. We're going to have new samples and kits. Hopefully a few surprises will arrive in time for the show. I'll share as soon as shipments are confirmed.
