We've been knitting up our exclusive Patina yarn here at the shop, and this week I'm sharing our projects with you and giving away yarn and patterns to knit your own.
On Monday, I showed off what Rachael chose for her Patina project. Today, I'm sharing shop-manager Heather's sweater.
Heather chose the Mary Mary sweater designed by Andrea Black, and paired it with the Jodhpur, India colorway of Patina. She used 1.5 skeins to knit the size 36. The result is a feminine and flattering cardigan that can easily be dressed up or down. And using Patina for the sweater means that the finished fabric looks dressy without sacrificing easy wash and long-lasting wear.
Want to knit this combo yourself? In the comments below, tell me what color of Patina you'd choose (by 5pm on Monday, November 11) and I'll randomly choose one commenter to win two skeins of your choice of color and the pattern. I'll also choose two other winners to win the pattern only, courtesy of designer Andrea Black.
Looking forward to the new colors we're adding later this month? Make sure you know the latest about what SSYC has to offer by signing up for our e-newsletter.
Snowflake, Virginia for me.

Hanging Gardens. The sweater is sooo pretty, you'd want it to be the focus whenever you wore it
Posted by: Sam | November 06, 2013 at 06:56 PM
I would use Antelope Canyon.

St Basils cause I never met a red I didn't like
Posted by: Dee Ann | November 06, 2013 at 07:09 PM
I would use Angkor Wat. The color is gorgous, but I really love the name!
Posted by: Elaine | November 06, 2013 at 07:13 PM
Antelope canyon! Yes please
Posted by: Joy hill | November 06, 2013 at 07:16 PM
I would pick Hanging Gardens. I'm not typically a green girl, but there is something about this particular shade that calls to me.
Posted by: Susie | November 06, 2013 at 07:20 PM
Rose Window took my breath away
Posted by: Janice | November 06, 2013 at 07:23 PM

I would use El Dorado. I think it would let the stitch pattern show up beautifully, and I love the colour.
Posted by: Karina | November 06, 2013 at 08:21 PM
Hanging Gardens...lovely green!
Posted by: Susan Ipavec | November 06, 2013 at 08:22 PM
Hard to choose, but I have to go for Easter Island!
Posted by: Pam Owens | November 06, 2013 at 08:29 PM
I believe "Hanging Gardens" would make a beautiful (and stand out) cardigan! Actually, the lovely colors make it a difficult choice - they all would be excellent choices.
Posted by: Ann M | November 06, 2013 at 08:33 PM
I would choose Angkor Wat for this project!
Posted by: Becky | November 06, 2013 at 08:42 PM

Posted by: Anita | November 06, 2013 at 09:40 PM

Jodhpur India just like her. That is so pretty and versatile!
Posted by: Jennifer L | November 06, 2013 at 11:28 PM
Easter Island would be my choice--I love the soft purple!

I'd love that sweater in Atlantis, but it was hard to choose!
Posted by: Jeanne | November 07, 2013 at 01:48 AM
Easter island for me- I'm in a somber grey mood.

Rose window or easter island. Then again perhaps I should step out of my box and use St Basils.
Posted by: Lynne | November 07, 2013 at 04:13 PM
I think Jodhpur India would be great!
Posted by: Peggy | November 07, 2013 at 07:22 PM

Posted by: Essjay | November 11, 2013 at 09:18 AM
I don't think my comment posted earlier (I probably forgot the verification step), but I would love this in Rose Window.
Posted by: Kristi | November 11, 2013 at 02:52 PM
Would have to go with Atlantis but am torn between that and Easter Island.
