shop sample: Hood River Cardigan handknit sweater
We just had to knit a shop sample of this sweater, named Hood River Cardigan! Knit with perennial favorite, Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok (Worsted) held double, the Hood River Cardigan by Mary Pranica is a quick knit that will chase the chill on the trail and keep you cozy while it storms outside. Casual and sporty, this cardigan fits the vibe of Hood River, OR, home of Knot Another Hat.
The sample was knit by Bekah using a combination of 150-gram and 50-gram skeins of Blue Sky Fibers Woolstok, a 100% fine Peruvian highland wool. The more neutral colors of this yarn are available in the larger 150-g skeins (in addition to 50-g), which are great for larger projects.
