Cauley was designed to be crocheted with our luxurious Crema Sock yarn, which is a luscious, shimmering, 4-ply sock yarn that is bouncy and long-lasting. With gorgeous drape, excellent structure, a soft hand, and a subtle glow, this yarn is lovely for socks, shawls, sweaters, accessories, blankets, baby items, and so much more! It is a dreamy yarn that takes the dye incredibly well, which results in fabulous, hand-dyed shades. This yarn is made from a blend of 70% Superwash Merino Wool and 30% Mulberry Silk with 350 yds/320 m per 3.5 oz/100 g skein.
The sample shown here was crocheted with color Fable Crema Sock. The pattern is offered in sizes XS - 5XL, and you’ll need three to six skeins of Crema Sock, depending on the size you select.

I have made tops knitted and crocheted and there is something so fulfilling about marking something you can wear and enjoy for years and when you go some place and wear your creations and someone asks you, where do you get that this beautiful think you wearing and you can say “thank you, I made it” its just the best feeling of such an accomplishment. Thank you Michelle Ferguson for a beautiful design, thank you Chandi for an awesome tutorial, I always enjoy them so much, and they are such a great help those times you get stuck on something.

    What a beautiful pattern and I love the shade chosen! I made my Mum a knitted top. She's recently moved into residential care, she will be 93 in mid-July. Sadly one of my brothers emptied Mums house and threw it away. Well it went to a thrift shop, but I don't know where! But I'm just going to make her a new one as she wore it regularly and not just when I was popping in for a visit. Have a fabulous week. xxJane 🐑🌼
