- Pattern
- Loopy Mango project bag
- Knitting Needles - OPTIONAL
Note: If knitting the neckline with 32” circular needles, you will need to use the Magic Loop Method. To avoid the Magic Loop, use 16” circular needles.
NOTE: A tapestry needle may be helpful when seaming and securing all loose ends.
Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry or tumble dry. Please test any washing/drying method on a small swatch to ensure you like the end result. Our cotton is un-mercerized and minimally processed to preserve the fiber’s natural softness and elasticity.
Yarn made in Italy, kit assembled in the USA.
Shown in Misty Morning (XS/S), Ginger (S/M), and Firebird (M/L).
