Cotton DK

New colours of Sirdar Cotton DK arrived this morning. Our leaflets didn't make it into the order (a very long story which has given me a headache) but you can purchase the patterns on Ravelry while we are waiting.

This v-neck cardigan was designed for the #10111 Cotton DK brochure for Sirdar. The garment features set-in sleeves and cleverly ribbed details along the shoulder and rest of the cardigan. After being knit flat in pieces and seamed together, the garter stitch borders at the neckline and front bands are added.

A fabulous cotton double knitting yarn for hand knit and crochet projects. The yarn is made using mercerised cotton to create a subtle sheen and incredible stitch definition so it’s the perfect yarn for lace knitting, cables and crochet work. With a wide range of flattering inspired by summer holidays, you'll find the perfect shade for any sunny project. Cotton DK is a classic double knitting yarn that will knit to all Sirdar’s DK designs and is machine washable.

The mercerised finish gives this yarn an incredibly smooth finish, it glides easily along your needles or hook, making it a dream to work with. 

This sleeveless v-neck top was designed for the #10114 Cotton DK brochure for Sirdar. Using British crochet terms and charts, the garment features set-in sleeve openings for ample arm movement. After being worked in pieces and seamed together, the edgings at the neckline and armholes are added.

This v-neck vest was designed for the #10113 Cotton DK brochure for Sirdar. The garment features set-in sleeve openings and vents at the side hemlines. After being knit flat in pieces and seamed together, the ribbed stitch borders at the neckline and armholes are added.

I just received an email that we should be receiving the patterns on Friday. The box also has more Kidsilk Haze Fade kits.

Are you following Jenn Steingass (knit.love.wool) on Instagram? If not, check her out. This is one of three patterns coming out soon. I can't wait! I'm totally addicted to stranded knitting right now.

I just called Beth to make sure that Boscoe was well rested and well practiced for graduation. She told me that she already received the graduation certificate by email. Okay. Now I don't have to worry. 😋
