Complimentary StitchSaver™ Row Checker and Backpack Project Bag

Designer Knitting Pattern
This designer knitting pattern uses a cashmere blend offering amazing elasticity. It is written with just the right amount of negative ease to provide a comfortable and flattering fit. It’s worked from the bottom up in two-by-two ribbing featuring a panel of beautiful lace ribs that runs the full-length hem to neck, front and back. So, working every row offers just the right amount of interest. The vents at the hips, shaping at the underarm and short rows on the shoulders add full-fashioned details.

Designer Knitting Kit
This designer knitting kit includes yarn, the pattern with instructions for all sizes, a list of all abbreviations, a schematic for accurate blocking, and a glossary of terms. It is accompanied by our proprietary StitchSaver™ Row Checker. Plus, a link is provided to Knitting Help on our web site. All in a complimentary backpack project bag.

Yarn
Alta Moda Cashmere 16 Fine – 80% Merino Fine, 10% Cashmere, 10% Polyamide – 50 grams – 350 yards / 320 Meters– DK weight

This yarn is remarkable and everyone who uses it falls in love. Between the blend of fibers and the construction of the yarn the result is extremely elastic and almost guarantees flawless gauge as you work. The finished fabric provides a nice combination of stitch definition and a subtle textured surface that feels so soft on your skin. It works nicely on a range of needle sizes, so you may have found your new best friend.

The on-screen color representations for yarn may not be precise representations of actual colors due to variance in monitor calibrations.

Testimonials

Sophisticated, elegant, stylish, chic. After seeing James’ collection, I may give up needlepoint.

These designs take men's sweaters to a whole new level of luxury and deliciousness. Might have to get a new man once my divorce goes through, just so I can knit him a James Cox Knits sweater.
