Meet Pluma, your new favorite summer cardi! The Pluma Summer Cardi uses soft worsted weight yarn and a comfy G-6 hook to construct a light piece for the summer. The focus of this design is on the puffy Turkish stitch used to make texture and also teach anyone who wishes to make it a new skill! The rest of the panels use a simple treble to build height. This pattern is available in sizes XS - S - M - L - XL.

This pattern uses 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 skeins of Main Street Yarns Shiny + Soft (334 yds/skein) and a G-6 (4.25 mm) hook.

The gauge for the main pattern can be measured after working, but the initial gauge that you work before starting the garment is the treble crochet one so that you know if the yarn and hook combination is ideal for the dimensions.
