Claudita Kit - The Uncommon Thread

This kit does not include the pattern. You'll also need a copy of Claudia Q's new book, Making Memories: Timeless Knits For Children.

 

PRE-ORDER

If I was a more talented embroiderer when my daughter was still a child, this cardigan would have been for her.The arching flowers, applied onto the sweater by my dear friend Midori, are a beautiful addition to what is otherwise a soft, everyday knit.
