Last summer, Suzanne van der Ende—whom you may know from her Instagram account @liefsvansuus_—designed the beautiful “Catching Butterflies” Cardigan. Many of you have crocheted this stylish cardigan with its delicate checkered pattern. To build on this and give you the chance to treat yourself (too) to a cool design by @liefsvansuus_, Suzanne has designed another fantastic cardigan for Yarnplaza!
Chasing Sunsets Cardigan
Do you recognize that feeling of “I have nothing to wear!” when you’re standing in front of your closet? In these situations, you’ll find that your love for versatile pieces only grows stronger. At least, that’s how it is for me! After all, how ideal is it when a single sweater looks great with jeans, slacks, or a skirt? Absolutely ideal! If you’re looking for an all-around piece like that, look no further. We’ve found it! The Chasing Sunsets cardigan by Suzanne van der Ende. :)
The cardigan is made with the lovely Yarn and Colors Baby Fabulous. A versatile blended yarn made of Cotton and Acrylic, it comes in a wide color palette of no fewer than 35 beautiful shades. To make the cardigan a real showstopper, the sparkling Glamour thread from Yarn and Colors was incorporated into the design. With the shimmering Glamour, this dazzling cardigan can be worn with both casual and chic outfits. So is this cardigan a true Must-have? Absolutely!
All good things come in threes
