Berroco Kailua is a gorgeous women’s cardigan
crocheted in Chai, featuring a lovely lace pattern that makes all your summer
outfits shine. The sweater is worked in one piece from the bottom up and then
divided at the underarms for the back and fronts. The sleeves are also worked
from the bottom up, and then all the pieces are then seamed together. Berroco
Chai is a summery blend of linen and silk with a subtle sheen and an
excellent drape. This DK to worsted weight yarn is an ideal choice for all
kinds of warm weather projects with its natural fiber, a wool-free blend that
will keep you cool. The lace panel is charted and written out.
