A recent Snow-day sparked the desire for spring-cleaning. Naturally, I started with my stash!

Looking at all the lovely odds-and-ends of my leftover yarns prompted this sweater creation. Random bits of sock yarn and mohair seemed the perfect complement to the Malabrigo Arroyo that I had left from a previous sweater project that didn’t pan out (mixed dye-lot). Add to that, a gorgeous skein of Mountain Colors Winter Lace that I received for my birthday, and voila! A sweater was born!

4 Strands is a simple, top-down sweater with next-to-no shaping and plenty of ease. It works up super-quick at 3 stitches to the inch-- and because of its construction it’s guaranteed to be a one-of-a-kind, no matter how many times you make it!

I have added a Stash-Tracking Worksheet with tips for matching the sleeves to the body on my blog here: https://kellykisdesigns.blogspot.com/2019/04/track-your-s...

Happy Stash-Diving!
