Craft: Knitting
Mehls’ top-down, ¾ sleeve open cardigan gets its nubby pops of texture from holding 2 strands together of HARUITO Hakusan, in a variety of combos: garter sections alternate 2 strands of the MC with 2 strands of the CC to create stripes, while seed stitch sections feature just 2 strands of MC held together. (How do you get an MC and a CC from just one colorway? Pull one from the inside of the ball and one from the outside after winding!)
