Cotton Fine "the little yarn that could" is a blend of 80% pima cotton and 20% merino wool that creates a yarn that is both soft to the touch and delightfully resilient. It is comfortable for all seasons. This unique plied cabled yarn provides a beautiful texture and drape for every knitted garment. Most knitters do not stop a one project. Cotton Fine looks great knit from 7 stitches to the inch on size 4 needles to 5.75 stitches to the inch on size 6 needles.

         
This little girls cardigan is very feminine with easy to knit cabbage roses ,  V-neck and dropped shoulders.
