Feature Pattern of the Week - Lillian
- Posted on
Lillian by Carrie Bostick Hoge
Quince & Co. Lark, color Iceland
Everyone needs that perfect, go-to knit cardigan that is akin to being wrapped in a soft hug. The Lillian by Carrie Bostick Hoge features a flattering shawl collar & two handy pockets. Simple, yet beautiful, the stockinette cardigan has ribbed cuffs, a thick, ribbed shawl collar & garter stitch pockets. It looks great on everyone!
The cardigan body and sleeves are worked back and forth in rows from the top down. The collar band is picked up and worked after the body is complete.
We chose Quince & Co. Lark in Iceland, a light, heathered grey, for our sample. Worsted weight Lark is 100% American wool that is spun & dyed in the U.S. The wool has a soft, lived-in feel that we love. The sample was knit & modeled by Elizabeth, one of our lovely, talented cast members.
