Candyland

Pre-order the book from Laine stockists worldwide. *Candyland is an ode to my love for cable knitting. Dancing throughout the entire sweater, the raised texture from this extraordinary stitch reminds me of the winding roads on childhood board games! As you work on your sweater, I hope you think of your favorite memories and intertwine them into the new ones as you twist every cable of Candyland.* Candyland is worked from the bottom up—both in the round and flat. The split hem is first worked flat, the sweater is then joined in the round to finish the lower section. The front and back yokes are then worked flat and shoulders are joined to finish the body. Stitches are then picked up around the edge of the armhole and worked in the round. Lastly, a plush, fold over collar is worked as you pick up stitches around the neckline.
