South American camelids are descended from a common
ancestor that most likely crossed the Bering land bridge
from Asia during an ice age. Two species then evolved: the
vicua and guanaco. Humans domesticated them, leading
to two new species: the alpaca and the llama.

The mill that produces Llamerino developed a
custom dehairer for this yarn. This machine
separates the coarser llama fiber from the fine,
allowing Cascade to isolate the finest fiber, which
goes into Llamerino. This stuff is on par with
baby alpaca.

Have you ever tried to sew in a sleeve cap and had trouble easing in the fullness or making a smooth

Working a sleeve from the top down has some distinct advantages. in pieces and the sleeve is worked in the round, sew the side seams
One of the tedious things about knitting a sleeve from the bottom up before starting the sleeve cap.

Before beginning the cap, join the shoulders by either using the three- and 7 stitches along the other half of the bind-off to the center of the

at the shoulder seam (between 2 stitches or on a stitch, depending on
whether you picked up a stitch in the seam) and before and after the
bound-off stitches at the underarm.
The cap is shaped using short-rows (Figure 3, on page 62). On the
first right-side short-row, begin by working to the shoulder marker,
then working 13 of the way down the armhole (in our example, 12
stitches past the shoulder), then wrapping the next stitch and turning.
On the next wrong-side short-row, work to 12 stitches past the shoul-
der marker, wrap the next stitch, and turn. At this point, the pattern
becomes: work to the wrapped stitch, work the wrap together with the
wrapped stitch, wrap the next stitch, turn. Do this for each right-side
and wrong-side short-row until youve wrapped the first stitch after
the bind-off marker on both a right-side row and a wrong-side row.
The next row will be a right-side row, and youll work to the beginning
of the round at the center of the underarm.
This method gives a well-fitting cap and is pretty straightforward.
MODIFICATIONS
There are some simple changes that you can make to these instructions
to adapt them to your preferences.
If you are working a sleeve with a stitch pattern on it, you will prob-
23 ably want to center the pattern on the sleeve. Fortunately, you have a
21 marker at the shoulder for the center of the sleeve. It can be easier to
establish a pattern on a wrong-side row because there are fewer fancy
19 stitches but enough knits and purls to see the pattern placement.
To center a stitch pattern, find the center of the pattern. You should
17
already know the number of stitches between the shoulder and the
15 first turning point. Count that number of stitches to the left of the
center of the pattern; if you get to the end of the pattern repeat, go
13 to the beginning of the repeat and continue counting. On your first
wrong-side short-row (right after wrapping the first stitch and turning),
11
start working the pattern, beginning with the stitch you counted to
9 in your pattern.
For example, if youre working the Cable chart shown at left and
7 you want the point marked on the chart to be centered on the sleeve
5
and there are 12 stitches between the shoulder marker and your first
turn, count 12 stitches to the left of center on the chart and begin the
3 first wrong-side row with that stitch.
With each short-row, youll work one more stitch of the chart.

SHAPING THE SLEEVE
center begin
WS row You can use your row gauge to figure out how long the original (bottom-
up) shaping would be, then convert it to top-down.
FIGURE 3 For example, if the increases happen every sixth row 12 times, then
there are 67 rows in the shaping (the first increase row, then every 6th
row 11 more times). If your row gauge is 7 rows/inch, then the shaping
takes 67 rows 7 rows/inch = 9". When working from the top down,
12
its usually nice to work a couple of inches even after finishing the
sts
sleeve cap before starting the sleeve shaping, and youll need to leave
enough length at the end for any ribbing or other trim.
In our example, for a total sleeve length (from the underarm to the
wrist) of 15", we could work 2" even after the sleeve cap is finished,
then our 9" of shaping, then 1" even to the ribbing, and then 2"of
ribbing, for a total of 15".
I hope this encourages you to work your next set-in sleeve from the
top down!

8RIGID-HEDDLE
REASONS YOULL LOVE
WEAVING
BY STEPHANIE FLYNN SOKOLOV
3. Instant gratification
Get ready for immediate results. Weaving an 8-inch-wide scarf using
sock-weight yarn takes six to eight hours from start to finish; knitting
a scarf at a moderate pace would take a couple of days. The rigid-
heddle loom is unique in its ability to utilize a lightning-fast process
called direct peg warping that allows you to set up your loom in a flash
and get weaving.
