The Sempervirens pattern was designed by Veronica Ory. Our sample was knit in Miss Babs Katahdin in the Sempervirens colorway. People often ask me what to pack when they come to visit in the San Francisco Bay Area. The short answer is always “layers!” I’m always looking for a light cardigan to throw on when I step out of the house, something that is big, breezy, and cozy, but won’t fight with the sleeves of whatever shirt I’m wearing or get too much in the way. I like this style for the ease of construction and a generous fit that works with a lot of body types. Sempervirens, meaning ‘evergreen’, is the specific epithet of the Coast Redwood, Sequoia sempervirens. The Coast Redwood is endemic to northern California and southern Oregon, and these breathtaking trees are some of the largest, oldest living things on earth. You'll need one or two skeins of Katahdin, depending on your size, to complete this project. Choose the original colorway below − or try another color! You can purchase the pattern for Sempervirens directly from the designer on Ravelry. This pattern is also available for purchase on LoveCrafts. All patterns are sold separately and not included with purchase of yarn.
