Bonnie Using Rowan Summerlite DK
The Design
Designed by Erika Knight for Bloom at Rowan: Baby Cashsoft Merino & Summerlite DK, this little vest top is as cute as it is cozy. Bonnie is mainly knit in a two-by-two rib, with one-by-one ribbing at the wide neck. With little knitted-in side ties, it’s an absolutely adorable layer.
Bonnie was knit in Rowan Summerlite DK—beautifully soft and lightweight. In this DK-weight yarn, Rowan used the finest Giza cotton—the crème de la crème of Egyptian cotton. This yarn is soft and tactile with a unique matte look and knits up beautifully for babies and adults alike!
