Notes

This is not just a Pattern, it’s an insightful guide on how to achieve the best fabric you can get from your machine knit garment in industrial cashmere.

It is very clear and straightforward to follow. Rich in details and tutorials so that a beginner may feel confident in all the trickier steps.

It’s a very educational guide.

I used a gorgeous 2/28 Todd & Duncan 100% cashmere I found on Vinted and watching it bloom after following Yana’s guide  was pure magic.

The pattern itself is easy but gorgeous and there is also a very useful cheat sheet the knitter can print out and check throughout the process.
