Add this bundle to your cart, click here to sign up for the KAL, and you will receive a free copy of Beatriz*.
~~~
Beatriz is designed with wide, dropped shoulders, which are created using decorative, cabled increases. This adds a sweet, subtle detail to the back shoulders of the sweater. It also features deep ribbing on the hem of the body and sleeves and a wide, ribbed button band.
The silhouette is oversized; it’s up to you HOW oversized! Choose anywhere from 4"/2.5cm to 16"/10cm ease. In the photos, the model has around 8" / 20 cm of positive ease. Julie of Cocoknits wears hers with 14" / 35.5 cm of positive ease. Are you aiming for a coat type cardigan that fits over everything? Go with more ease! Or do you want a closer fitting cardigan? Or something in between? Try measuring some similar items in your wardrobe to help inform the size you’ll knit... and then dive in!
(Please note the sample sweater shown is NOT knit out of Bread & Butter Everyday and is only an example of what we will be knitting.)

Kristine, the co-owner of Verb, will be knitting her sweater out of Bread & Butter Everyday. She will be adding little flecks of fluffy Frond sporadically throughout her sweater. Please see the photo of the swatch as reference.
The combination of Everyday and Frond is a match made in heaven. Everyday is made of soft U.S. Merino wool. Each color is blended prior to spinning creating a heathered, gorgeous yarn. Frond is a radiant beam of halo and glow, due to its content of mohair and silk. Light as a cloud, with a fluffy halo of mohair surrounding a strong silk core.
We have created a limited number of special bundles for this KAL including the Frond bonbons. There are two options of colorways: rich green Deep Valley paired with cool tones of neutrals, greens, and blues and dark brown Porcini paired with warm tones of mauve, pink, and bright speckles of orangey-yellow.

Everyday by Bread & Butter, 100% U.S. Merino wool; 200 yd / 183 m per 100g skein

When working with yarn dyed with indigo, it is common and natural for the blue dye to rub off on one’s hands while sewing. This is called crocking. Although the goods have been washed, it takes pressured contact to release the extra indigo dye. Your handwork is part of the indigo dyeing process. The blue dye can be removed with hot water and soap. From working closely with indigo dyed materials through the making process, typically, the excess dye has been removed, and the crocking will cease.
