Project of the Month: Frankie Cardigan in Eco Tweed Chunky
For our first Project of the Month in 2025, we’re thrilled to feature Janice’s stunning Frankie Cardigan, a cozy knit from the Knit How book by Francesca Hughes and Meghan Fernandes (published by Pom Pom). Made with our new Eco Tweed Chunky yarn, this project perfectly showcases the beauty of this versatile fiber blend and its luxuriously soft finish.
This yarn is a dream to knit with! Eco Tweed Chunky combines 50% Organic Wool, 25% Alpaca, and 25% Lyocell, resulting in a yarn that’s lightweight thanks to its woolen-spun construction, which traps air for added loft and elasticity. Its also next-to-skin friendly, making it ideal for sweaters, shawls, and accessories you’ll want to wear all season long.
The Frankie cardigan, from Knit How, is a classic yet approachable pattern for knitters of all skill levels. The simple stocking stitch combined with the thoughtful shaping and garter-stitch edging makes this cardigan both stylish and functional. Whether you’re layering it over a tee at home or pairing it with a dress for a casual outing, the Frankie cardigan is versatile and timeless.
