Knit Cafe Midori Ranunculus is a must for summer knitting—endless options to make it your own. Choose a warm weather yarn like Quince and Co Kestrel, Swallow or Willet, change up the sleeves or neckline, crop it or go long, super lacy (in Sparrow) or less airy (in Kestrel or a worsted weight cotton).
