Featured Projects of the Week – a Cardigan & a Pullover…
This week we are featuring, not one, but two classic patterns from Berroco, in your choice of a cardigan or a pullover or both! These timeless designs will no doubt enhance your wardrobe and soon become your favourite to wear. The patterns for these two projects, Fryda & Rosalia, come FREE of charge with Berroco yarn purchase.
A Classic Delight
Fryda is a simple, timeless circular yoke cardigan with delicate broken rib stitch details on the hem and cuffs; worked from the top down using a combination of a worsted weight yarn (#4) and a lace weight yarn (#0) held together; shown here using Ultra Wool and Aerial Color. With this canvas you can have fun mixing and matching colours. Don't forget to try using Ultra Wool Handpaint and Aerial, too!
Fryda is a great knit for beginners to experienced alike – a ‘wear everywhere’ classic cardigan that will be a staple in your wardrobe. Worked seamlessly from the top down using a strand of Aerial Color and Ultra Wool (84 solid shades) held together throughout. Or conversely, hold a strand of Ultra Wool Handpaint and Aerial (18 solid shades) together.
