Mink Hollow Cardi
This yarn begged me to knit it into something with fabulous 
drape. Starting with the centre back cable, stitches are picked 
up for each side and worked in one piece around to the front 
edges. Sleeves are worked down from “live” stitches and 
finished with a super-simple lace trim to match the fronts. Wear 
open and flowy or use a shawl pin to close the fronts at the 
shoulder or waist. The perfect cardi for sultry, Summer nights.
