Cedro
To highlight the gorgeous marl of these two yarns, I chose to design with a lot of stockinette so the yarns could really show up, and then added a lace detail that I felt was both bold enough to stand up to the colors in the fabric, but delicate at the same time.
The result is the Cedro pullover - featuring textured lace flowers and garter stitch details on the lower body, an open V-neck, and an easy fit. Construction and details are simple, with a rolled cuff on the sleeve and a simple rib on the collar. Not only is it great distracted knitting, but it knits up in no time!
Cedro is worked from the bottom up from in the round to armholes, then separated in pieces and worked flat to shoulder. Stitches are picked up around armholes and neckline once shoulders are seamed, and both sleeves and collar are worked in the round to end. The lace is both charted and written, and notes are in the pattern to modify for fit as needed.

Laceweight: Ritual Dyes Fae (70% Kid Mohair, 30% silk; 459yds/420m per 1.76oz/50g skein). Sample knit in False Indigo.
If substituting a single yarn, look for a heavy worsted or aran weight skein with a touch of halo, speckle or vareigation for a similar effect.

Needles: US 10/6.0mm
