I have recently discovered how much I love garments made with fingering yarns. If you feel resistant to all that knitting, consider the following.
• Because there is so much fingering available, finding a fun mix of colours will be easy. (Chances are you already have half what you need in your stash?)
• Knitting with fingering yarns is very easy on the hands.
• Because so much of it is tightly spun, it hangs beautifully.
• We can wear these garments through all seasons.
• And don’t you, every once in a while, love a project that requires a lot of knitting?

I used 8 different colours of fingering yarn, and the pattern explains how my colours were chosen, You could, of course, knit this with any number of different yarns, in any number of colours. All neutrals would be lovely and easy to wear! You just want to make sure you have a total of AT LEAST 1200 (1400, 1600) yds (1080 1260, 1440m)--for sizes XS-S (M-L, 1X-2X).
