Yarn Set: Kitchen Stories (amirisu 23)

This yarn set includes yarn only. The pattern is available in amirisu Issue 23.

Kitchen Stories is a two-color colorwork cardigan reminiscent of the winter scenery of Norway. Biches & Bûches Le Petit Lambswool has an ideal grippy texture for this multi-steek project that will help even beginners to steeking feel confident that their stitches will stay in place when it is time to cut open the work.

Cardigan knitted in the round with steeks which are later cut open to form the front opening, neck opening, and armholes. The body is worked bottom-up, the sleeves are worked from the top-down after stitches are picked up around the armholes.
