Cabaret Raglan


Cabaret Raglan, by Norah Gaughan, from Interweave Knits Summer 2004. I had thought Cabaret was a discontinued yarn, but when Herschners (not my favorite yarn source) put it on sale early in 2007, I snatched some up, in pink, my favorite color. Here it is. It is a very casual pullover and the bottom rolls a bit, so I should have swatched the border first, and then I would have found that it needed a few more garter ridges to lie flat. It is too casual for office wear, even for me. I also found that I don't enjoy knitting with tape yarns that produce a springy fabric, but it was a quick and fun project.
