Nera of Berroco Estiva


This title sounds like the heroine of a French Novel
but it is the name of this sweater!
The rib took a long time but it is a good finish
to this casual cardigan.
Now about the fit.....
it feels good on, the fabric is a nice weight
but it will take a bit of adjusting to the open neck and swing-ish front!
I will like it, I 'm sure.
Stats:  Lion Brand Cotton Blend yarn
just over 2 cakes in the Indigo colorway
A hand knit pattern , Nera, converted to machine knitting.
This is a paid for pattern from the Estiva Pamphlet by Berroco.

    Well I love it. You could dress it down with blue jeans or dress it up with linen pants!
