Kodachrome
Kodachrome is a basic coat designed to bring out your inner Kaffe Fassett! Knit with bulky yarn on #10.5 needles, it’s easy and fast to make – a perfect knit to showcase your favorite colors. While Kaffe’s beautiful yarn inspired the original design, Noro or any other self-striping yarn will work as well. Alternatively, you can use several different non-striping yarns to create the stripes, or knit the coat in one fabulous solid color to really make a statement.
