Norah Gauhan cardigan from Vogue Knitting

[knitology]

I'll totally organize the knitalong if people are up for it. The issue of Vogue Knitting comes out January 9th. This cardigan from Norah Gauhan is ridiculously beautiful.

Here's the project:

Since It looks as if some people are interested, I've also created a "home" for the KAL.

Thanks! That other lace sweater is also gorgeous, even though the model looks a bit blazed  All of the sections on the outside look great too, hats and roses! I've never done cables before so I'm not sure if I could tackle that shrug thing but it definately cool.

I've also posted it as a "i love" on my blog! I'm not sure I love anything else in this particular VK (there are things i LIKE-  but not LOVE), but I want to get it just for this cardi.

Can't wait till it reaches Australian shores!

I've been dreaming about that cardigan on the cover.    Something about those cables -- so squeezable! I've been waiting for the issue to hit my shelves. . . .

(I agree about the rest of the mag given the preview -- nice but nothing spectacular.)

I'm in love with that as well.  Has anybody received their magazine yet that could share sizes/yarn requirements?

I was thinking of maybe one of these Blue Skys Alpaca shades from kpixie; especially the natural white or natural light grey. Delish.

but I don't know the gauge specs....

i got my magazine, love the bolero, but it is so insane to use 11 skeins of Berroco Pure Merino for XS size!
For those who need the requirements:
XS(S, M, L, XL)
11(13,15,17,19) 50gr balls(each approx. 92yds/85m) of Berroco, Inc. Pure Merino(extra fine merino) in color #8528 cocoon
US9 (5.5mm) needles

thanks for that olgajazzy

Can you tell me what the skill level is for it too?
