Inspired by sweaters and textiles from her childhood, designer Melissa Johnson has created this V-neck cardigan knit in a rich but easy Fair Isle pattern or a solid color with contrasting trim. Sitting at her work table Melissa looks out to the Great Meadows, rich agricultural land on the banks of the Connecticut River.

Now you see them, now you don't! Like magic, the stripes on this vest emerge and fade as your little one moves. This pattern provides a simple introduction to shadow knitting. Use solid colors to create bold stripes or use one painted yarn with a solid for a more subtle effect.

Spontaneously designed for a Spinnery customer, this pattern is based on our Easy Raglan sweater. Stitches are cast on at the neck; increases are worked at four evenly spaced intervals. Directions are for either a rolled or cable neck with ribbed or cabled hem. Feel free to make variations of your own - finishing the hem with fringe, I-cord, bobbles... You may think of the poncho as a blank canvas and work stripes, texture, or both. Have Fun!
