Parker Cardi
I think the Parker Cardi may be my next sweater – after I finish Gillespie (you know me, always thinking ahead to my next meal). I like it’s simplicity, both in aesthetic and execution. When it comes to spring & summer knitting I need my projects to be easy to execute, anything too ambitious and I don’t seem to get it done. I’ve been working with the Quince & Co. Sparrow at the same tension for Gillespie, and I really like the basic stocking stitch with this yarn – plus its easy-peasy, minimal thinking knitting. I’m not sure which colour yet, but I’m very keen on the new marled colours (especially conch and mineral).
