I knit this in one day from a free pattern given me by my local yarn shop, Yarns Unlimited in Sewickley, PA.

The sample in the shop was knit in a creamy Mira Mira (I forget the brand), a fluffy mohair. I used another yarn from my discounted yarn stash in bright orangey red.

This was so easy to knit up:
Just CO 90 stitches
Row 1: Increase in back of each stitch across. 180 st.
Row 2: Knit
Row 3: Increase in the back of each stitch across. 360 st.
Row 4: Knit
Row 5: Increase in the back of each stitch across. 720 st.
Row 6: Knit
CO using US 19 needles.

Pattern Source: Yarns Unlimited, PA

Yarn: Lana Grossa Quattro

Needles: US 17 circular, US 19
