Original Pattern: Kai mei and Seamless Saddle Shoulder Pullover
Knitter Extraordinaire: Patricia (Ravelry ID)
Mods: Combined a great detail from a sock pattern and the Elizabeth Zimmermann sweater recipe for this fully customized cardigan. Project page can be found here.
What Makes This Awesome: What a wonderful idea- customizing a perfect blue cardigan and using a great lace detail at the waist. And for the lace, the original sock design had a lace stripe that worked perfectly- just the right amount of detail and interest. If you were building your ideal cardigan from scratch, following the wisdom of Elizabeth Zimmermann is a great place to start. Patricia’s cardigan is a testament to how personalized (and beautiful!) you can make it.
