Cottons > Coquette Louisa Harding Yarns > Coquette Coquette by Louisa HardingAvailable in three fun summer colors, this poly yarn features colorful little discs, rather like sequins but not so iridescent. The very feminine cardigan below makes a nice summer top paired with a flowing skirt for those occasions when you want to wear something special and be a little dressed up. The 3/4 sleeve cardigan takes 13-15 balls to knit (40-42" chest). Knits at 5.5 sts/in on US 6. 73 yds/sk. (I do not stock the fleshtone color shown in the cardigan.) Louisa's new summer book, Hummingbirds, also has patterns using this yarn in summer wraps, a cute hat and as trim on other cardigans. I also thought it could be a good substitute for any pattern calling for Tilly Tomas silk disco yarn ($40/sk) such as the one shown below by Stitch Diva. The crochet necklace or belt, also shown below, takes just 1 skein and the pattern comes free with the yarn purchase. Price: $9/sk
