Why We Chose this Pattern:
The Weekender Light was designed by Andrea Mowry. This pattern is the fingering weight version of her previous pattern, “The Weekender.” We are so excited to offer the Weekender Light Sweater Kit with our YIN YANG Yarn.
Our sample is knit in YIN YANG fingering weight using the following colorways:
MC: Everything In Its Place and CC: A Place for Everything.
This sample demonstrates how YIN YANG yarn can be used to feature design details in a sweater. We knit the body of The Weekender Light in “Everything In Its Place” and highlighted the ribbing in the drop-shoulder neckline, and cuffs in “A Place for Everything.” The result is sophisticated and simply stunning.
If this pattern is in your cue, or you’ve been thinking about knitting it again, grab your YIN YANG yarn kit today. This unique take on the Weekender Light is what you’ve been waiting for! We offer lots of great Weekender Light Sweater Kit color combinations.
Please note that the pattern is not included in the price of the sweater kit.
