Baybridge
Is there anything more soothing than a walk along the bay? I have always loved being barefoot in the sand, with the fizzling tide nipping at my toes. I breathe in the sea air, breathe out the worries of the day, and leave my footprints to be slowly erased by the sea.
Inspired by walks along the coast, my Baybridge classic cardi has modern lines and texture with linear details to create flattering visual interest. A relatively quick knit with an easily memorized pattern, you’ll love this project for social knitting – especially once you’ve passed the sleeve divide.
Knit the size of your full bust measurement for a standard fit (with 2 in/5 cm positive ease included) or go up 1-2 sizes for a relaxed fit (as shown).
