Yarn: Eco-Fusion Designer: Brenda Grobler Loosely based on Annie, Bahari is an excellent stashbuster. Bahari is a Swahili word that means 'by the sea', and this is actually why Carle asked Brenda to design a similar one. Annie is a firm favourite in her wardrobe, but as she spends a lot of time at her home in Kommetjie, she needed an extra one for long walks on the beach.

Wabi-Sabi means 'perfectly imperfect' in Japanese. Being wabi-sabi is to be happy and satisfied, even when things are not 100% perfect. This pattern was originally published in Issue 25 of Creative Hobbies (August 2017). The Wabi-Sabi Cardigan is a great pattern that combines knitting with crochet. But fear not, non-crocheters! If you can't, (or don't want to) crochet the sleeve edging, simply work a couple of garter stitch rows and knit the sleeve to the correct length.
