New Knit-Along: The Caftan Pullover!

    
The Caftan Pullover

And the winner is....

The Caftan Pullover by Norah Gaughan. Clink on the link at left  to get the pattern from the pattern store (or dig out your issue of Interweave Knits Spring 2006!).

Here's the schedule:

September 20-September 27: Get pattern, choose yarn, work on gauge swatch.

September 27-October 11: Knit back

October 12-November 2: Knit front

November 3 to December 1: Knit sleeves

December 2 to December 16: Finishing and blocking

December 16 and beyond: Post photos on the forum and wear your caftan to a many holiday events as you can!

I'm going to be using Sublime Merino Silk Aran in the color Fennel. I think the smoothness of this yarn will show the detail really well. There's no errata for this pattern, so we're all set to go! Oh, and here's the knit-along forum, too.

Have fun!
