This DK weight sweater is our featured sweater for Take a Hike RMNP - Cub Lake.
The Stitchin Den is featuring this beautiful Cardigan pattern to celebrate our "Take A Hike RMNP- Cub Lake" series. Ali Pate, a local indie dyer and owner of Herd of Cats Yarn", has graciously custom dyed several colorways for this beautiful cardigan in watercolor like interpretations of the beautiful wildflowers we encounter on the hike to Cub Lake. We have limited runs of color in up to 10 skeins each to accommodate the yardage required for this pattern. Shop early to get the greatest selection! Ali's yarns are designed to give an overall hand dyed effect to the cardigan rather than the color fade suggested in the pattern. They can, however, be mixed and matched to achieve a similar fade effect.
