Encore: Tanguy

Wow! Thank you, everyone, for your emails and wonderful comments on Le Tanguy! This simple sweater is one of my favorite projects of all time, and I'm absolutely tickled that you've given it such a great reception.


Since so many of you have emailed, impatient to cast on, until the website is ready Le Tanguy will be available as a kit. For orders and enquiries, please send an email to sauveterre AT gmail DOT com with the subject line: "Kit - Le Tanguy".



Kit pricing varies according to the number of skeins required for the project, so please be sure to include the size you are interested in making. Sizing is as follows:

Small - Chest size 34"
Medium - Chest size 38"
Large - Chest size 42"
X-Large - Chest size 46"
XX-Large - Chest size 50"

The version shown (size L) was knit with 10 skeins of Mont Blanc (100% lt dk cashmere), colorways Tobacco and Sky, but don't feel that you need to be wedded to that combination. Let the colors you choose make your own statement. The following are just a few pairing suggestions, ranging from bashful to bold.





For more semi-solid colorway options, pricing and ordering information, please see The List of Colorways.
