This pattern was originally written as a mini-workshop for North Georgia Knitting Guild’s Beat the Heat Retreat in July of 2012.

Updated 28 October 2019 to version 1.1.

Project requires casting on (Judy’s magic cast-on or Italian cast-on preferred), working in double-knitting, grafting hem closed (to make casing), and cords.

This e-booklet file is half-sheet formatted with all the pages in normal order including the blank inside covers. If you have a smaller tablet or you read off your smart phone, you shouldn’t have to zoom as much. You can also print this size if you print on 5.5 x 8 inch paper — i.e. half-sheet. If you’d like a center-fold booklet, use Adobe Acrobat Reader DC and choose the “booklet” option when you print.

Because this is a small project, you can get several of them out of two skeins of kitchen cotton. If you are doing this as a guild project, you can probably make up about 14 kits from four skeins of Lily Sugar’n Cream. Just wind off yardage on a swift or niddy noddy, and give each person two different colors.
