After finishing the Bunny Wishes Sweater I immediately cast on the Seven Sisters Top by SloaneLacasse for Blue Sky Fibers. I saw this top in The Dizzy Knitter email and just fell in love with it, even though it is two things that I don’t usually go for: Cotton yarn in Worsted weight, although coming in at 150 yards per 100 grams, I would consider it heavier than that, more of an Aran weight. It is also knit on larger needles than I typically use - US 8 (5.0 mm) for the ribbing, and US 10 (6.0 mm) for the body.
The yarn is Printed Organic Cotton in the color Sundrop, and I also just fell in love with the color, and the variegated way it knits up. I’m still not a huge fan of knitting with pure cotton, or with such large needles, but I am pretty happy with how this top is working up.
