WHIMSY is a textured, women’s, V-neck pullover with 3/4 sleeves and slight A-line shaping. It utilizes two lace stitches -- the Puff Stitch and the Bead Pattern Stitch. Puff Stitch rib is worked at lower edge, cuffs, and neck edging.

This is a sweater that can span three seasons -- Spring, Summer and Fall. WHIMSY knits up fairly quickly and is a delight to wear with its feeling of casual elegance.

If you are using Tahki Cotton Classic, you will need 9 (10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15) 1 ¾ oz/50 g balls. Photos are shown in color #3248, milk chocolate. The pattern is offered in 7 sizes.

The growth experienced with cotton is factored into the garment’s gauge, so please do not worry about your Whimsy becoming too large once you wear it. Those lace stitches will be happy to open up for you when you block your finished pieces.
