The people have spoken! Last month I had a little <a href="http://graceakhrem.com/2013/04/poll-time-place-your-vote-today/">poll</a> where everyone could place their vote as to which of my four new garment patterns they wanted to knit up in the next knit-a-long.  The <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/haru-3">Haru</a> pattern won by a landslide between all the blog, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/GraceAkhrem">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/GraceAkhrem">Twitter</a>, and <a href="http://www.ravelry.com/groups/browse/show/are-you-a-fan-of-grace-akhrem-join-us">Ravelry</a> votes!

This convertable garment is a must have in every knitter's wardrobe!  The unique construction and reversible stitch pattern allows for this piece to be worn many different ways.... so many I loose count.  <a href="&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.ravelry.com/purchase/grace-akhrem-2/144372&quot;&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;http://www.ravelry.com/images/shopping/buy-now.gif&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;">Haru</a> is knit in a silk ribbon for the body and a linen for the border and sleeve caps.  This is a perfect piece for the hotter months that are just around the corner.  And its sized from XS all the way through 5XL, no one is excluded from being allowed to make this piece.
