The other pattern that caught my eye is the Spacetime sweater from Heidi Kirrmaier done in DK yarn.
I am thinking of bringing in Lang Yarns Secret Garden (84% cotton). I think it would be great in Emma's Cotton DK as well as the Berroco DK yarns that are on sale this week!
I like the detail for the increases from the neck down...... what do you think should we offer this as a Knit-along?? A Friday night or Sunday afternoon?? hmmm ... let us know!
