March at HYS...
Ahhhh! Signs of SPRING are here! We are excited about the warmer temps and the imminent arrival of NEW SPRING YARNS arriving this month. Henny requested early shipments from our vendors so that we can get lots of new fibers on the shelves before the WEST MICHIGAN YARN QUEST coming in April. Read on to see what we have in store for our March KAL and details on the upcoming YARN QUEST…
Asterie is worked seamlessly from the top down. Stitches for the neckline are cast on, then short rows are worked to raise the back of the neck. After that, the textured yoke pattern is worked, and additional short rows are introduced to angle the neckline forward. Once the yoke is completed, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold and the body is worked in the round down to the ribbing. For the body, you can choose to work the sweater with or without horizontal bust darts and / or tapering of the body. Finally, the sleeves are worked from the top down in the round.
As usual, you’ll save 15% on yarn and pattern with our KAL discount when you join in on the fun. Stop by the shop soon to pick out your yarn and cast on!
We have SO MANY yarns in a rainbow of colors that will be perfect for this sweater!
