Holla Knits Blog Tour and Pattern Giveaway!

Now that I'm in Southern California, I cannot get enough of a good, lacy summer sweater. So I was holding my breath, waiting for the release of the most recent issue of Holla Knits!

Stoney Brook Top & Hawt Sands
And it did not disappoint with the Summery, beachy looks, perfect for the weather around here.
However, there was one sweater that stood out for me....

When I saw the Cafe Au Lait cardigan by Kristin Singer, I knew I needed one in my wardrobe. So much so, that I've already cast on!

I'm knitting the pattern as written, but subbing Knit Picks Stroll Fingering in place of the suggested yarn. I expect to wear this cardigan a lot, so I wanted something that would stand up to that kind of wear.
Thus far the cables and lace are gorgeous and I can't stop knitting it. It looks tiny on the needles, but I trust that once blocked, it will be large enough for an adult human!

Do you want to make your own Cafe Au Lait? Or any other pattern from the Spring Issue of Holla Knits?

I'm giving away a free pattern! Just comment here before next Friday, May 2nd, with your favorite Spring design, and you'll be entered to win!
