about canby

CANBY is that cardigan you will be reaching for all fall and winter so you can wrap yourself in the buttery softness of Bouncy Fingering and Featherdown Suri Silk Lace.

CANBY is worked in one piece from the bottom up to the armholes. Fronts and back are divided and worked flat to the shoulders. Sleeves are picked up at the armhole edge and worked in the round to the cuff. CANBY is worked holding one strand of fingering with one strand of lace weight suri/silk together throughout. The deep hem, collar, and cuffs are worked in an easy cable rib pattern.
