Sakai Cardigan Knit-Along: 1.24.2020
$15.00 / 30 days
Description
Sakai Cardigan Knit-Along begins on January 24, 2020 and will run for 90 days. The pattern can only be obtained by reserving a place here. See also Sakai Pullover Knit-Along which runs simultaneously.
Subscription
This is a subscription, for which the sale price is $5 per 30 days, or $15 overall. For that price you will receive pattern instructions, access to a private Sakai Cardigan Slack channel to ask questions, make comments, and interact. I will post videos, and schedule chat times through the Slack Channel. You will be invited to the Slack channel on reserving your place.
You may choose to end the subscription, but if you do not pay for all three segments, you will only get the materials to date of withdrawal.
Pre-Knit-Along Information
Between now and January 24, please make your swatch and get your yarn for the Sakai Cardigan. Also, take your bust measurement and decide how long your cardigan will be. You will have to make some sizing choices. There are 20 sizes for this Sakai Cardigan!!!!!!!
This is a relaxed fit, so sufficient ease will be added to the pattern based on your bust measurement. If you plan a long cardigan and your hip measurement at the finished length is wider than your bust, please use the larger number.
I created a Sakai Cardigan Yarn Search on Ravelry. I did not select a fiber preference because I wanted to make it usable to anyone. You could use my criteria and also narrow your fiber preferences.
Look at the tabs to get more detailed information on needed Supplies, Yarn, Sizing, and Gauge for the Sakai Cardigan. The fabric is quite forgiving, so a heavier weight yarn can be used, as long a gauge is obtained. My cardigan is being made from Wash my Lace from Anzula Luxury Fibers.
