A “little rainbow” with the look of a sailor’s jersey knitted in Candide

When summer makes you want to knit small, simple and light!


Knitted on the basis of the “little rainbow” pattern that many of you know well, here is a little striped cardigan that smells like vacation 🙂 It is knitted in Candidesucre glace” and “grand bleu,” 1 ball of each for the 3 months size 🙂


If you want to do the same, just start the stripes at the neckline with 2 rows of the main color and continue them on the body and sleeves, finishing with one row of the main color before the borders, without making a pocket.


A perfect little project to discover the freshness of Candide and that won’t take too much space in the suitcase 🙂

Yarn : Candide (185 m / 50g, 70% merinos d’Arles biologique, 30% recycled cotton), shown in “sucre glace” and “grand bleu
