No cold breeze can get you down when you can wrap yourself in warmth
with Berroco Bingen, a chunky and squishy women’s
cardigan knit in Coco. This sweater will fly off your needles and onto your
back in no time! Bingen is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and then
seamed. Once the seaming is complete, the collar is picked up, starting at the front
neck edge, and knit back and forth in garter stitch. Coco from Berroco is a
delightful Merino wool perfect for quick projects. A thick and colorful strand
of wool is plied with a thin strand for added strength and stability. Super
bulky Coco works up fast, and its machine-washability makes it an excellent choice for
this cardigan.
