Trinigan Sweater Kit - Malabrigo Rios and Malabrigo Washted

New from Andrea Mowry!

This is a pull-on-over-anything jacket style cardigan with wide sleeves and easy worn-open style.  It has a fun marled backdrop and color changing mosaic colorwork.  No stranded knitting-just slipped stitches!

This cardigan is knit from the bottom up, seamlessly except for underarms.  The body and yoke are worked flat and the sleeves are picked up and knit in the round. 

The cardigan uses two colors of worsted weight yarn:  a main color (here we use Malabrigo Rios) and a contrasting color that peeks through the slipped stitches with tiny pops of color.  This kit Malabrigo Washted because its bold color shifts highlight the slipped stitches beautifully.

Note that this sweater must be oversized to fit well, so 14-10 inches of positive ease is recommended.
