Rowan Marion from Cape Bay is a
women’s pullover knit in Softyak DK featuring an allover honeycomb cable that
adds gentle substance to this simple sweater. The generous fit makes this a
perfect layer for chilly summer evenings. Marion is knit flat in pieces from
the bottom up and then seamed. Rowan Softyak DK is a blend
of yak, cotton, and nylon that has the best of all worlds: the softness of
cashmere combined with durability and washability. The darker yak fibers create
a beautiful melange with the dyed cotton. The cable patterns are in chart form only.
