WEBS Exclusive!
Norah Gaughan Koster is a woman’s knitted cardigan with instructions for both a solid version and a breathtaking intarsia version using Valley Yarns Taconic. If you like a little more color and excitement in your knitting, the intarsia version is for you, if you like something a little more subtle, the solid version is a winner. Soft and tweedy Taconic is a blend of Merino wool and cashmere, with multicolored tweedy flecks that give the finished fabric a fantastic visual texture. This is an excellent yarn for quick but luxurious projects, like hats, cozy cowls, pullovers and much more. Note: The intarsia pattern is in chart form only.
