I designed this sweater in honor of my beautiful friend Jodi, as a tribute for her Birthday. 
Jodi likes minimal details, she likes circular yoke sweaters and cool fibers, so I picked a beautiful linen yarn to design this for her. 
In July 2019 we were so lucky to spend a week together visiting the town of Cedar. It was a time to relax, knit together and tell stories. I named this sweater to remind us of that wonderful time and place.
 
It uses two strands of fingering weight to achieve a DK-equivalent gauge… So it would work with most things in your stash! Try double stranding similar or different colors, and any fiber you can think of.

You can replace it with 2 strands of any other fingering weight yarn or a worsted weight yarn. The total yardage required is approx. 1320 (1440, 1680, 1920, 2160, 2400, 2640, 2880, 3120) yards 1207 (1317, 1537, 1756, 1976, 2195, 2415, 2634, 2854) m if using a double stranded fingering weight, or half that amount if using a single stranded worsted. 
Needles: US 5 (3.75 mm) and US 3 (3.25 mm) circular needles. 
Other notions: Stitch markers, stitch holders (or waste yarn), tapestry needle.
 
GAUGE 
19 sts and 26 rows 4” 10 cm holding 2 strands of Reed together on US 5 (3.75 mm) needles in Stockinette stitch. 
Before you measure, please take the time to wash and block your swatch in the same manner that you will wash and block your sweater.
