The Sanguine Gryphon released their 2010 summer line of patterns today, and I’m excited to announce that one of them is mine. This is the Cayuga Cardigan that I knit earlier in the spring.
The Cayuga Cardigan is a half-length lacy cardigan, featuring a cathedral lace edging along the bottom edge and on the sleeve cuffs.
The cathedral lace motif is reminiscent of the clock tower at Cornell University. It lies on the top of a great hill overlooking Cayuga Lake.
The cardigan in the picture is size 38″, but the pattern is available in a wide range of sizes, from 34″-50″. It’s knit in Skinny Bugga! (450 yds/4 oz skein – merino/cashmere/nylon). My size used 2 skeins of yarn, but the larger sizes use a little more. I just loved knitting this cardigan with a hand-dyed semi-solid yarn. The colour variation in the stockinette portion kept my interest while knitting, and yet it doesn’t detract from the lace pattern at all.
