Bring your knitting outside! Garden Swing is knit using 10 mini-skeins (we used 2 Party of Five sets from Sweet Georgia Yarns). This very simple wrap is mainly stockinette, with just a little bit of lattice mesh. It’s the perfect project for a beginner or anyone who just wants to sit & knit. The hardest part of the project will be deciding how to arrange your mini-skeins.

Garden Swing is worked in one continuous piece so there’s no grafting! The pattern has written instructions and includes a formula to calculate for yarn substitutions. It’s sure to be a three season staple in your wardrobe.
