Cynthia

Cynthia

Pattern: Cynthia from Hot Knits

Yarn: Lion Brand CottonEase in Banana Cream

Needles: Denise Circulars size 8

Notes: While the pattern is easy to follow, the collar just doesn't cut it. So, I used an i-cord bind off after knitting a few rows on size 6 needles. This helped to bring in the neck a bit and not make it so floppy.
