After ripping out Bella Paquita for Ravellenics, I was without any kind of project for a while. As in less than 12 hours. Before you know it, I had two cardigans and a shawl on the needles. What happened??
I scored some mohair/acrylic blend at the flea market and it wanted to become something warm to snuggle into in the long, cold winter. Crossroads is a free Garnstudio pattern with a very interesting construction: you start by making a rectangle from the center out, then pick up for the fronts – huge, floppy fronts. There’s some interesting short-row shaping and set-in sleeves.
It’s an interesting knit but I’m not sure if it’s going to fit right. Blocking helps, right?
