Product Details

This oversized cardigan originally knitted in Twilleys Freedom Purity Chunky, shade 787 Limestone, features fairly simple textured stitch patterns, long sleeves, welt and rib front band. The body is worked in one piece to the armholes then divided for left & right fronts and back. The sleeves are knitted up from the cuff, have a shallow cap and are set in. Stitches are picked up along both front edges and back neck and the front band worked in rib.

As this garment is oversized, it is advisable check the final measurements to select your preferred fit.

The original yarn seems to be discontinued but suggestions for substitutes may be found at yarnsub or check with loveknitting for ideas, but do remember to knit a swatch.
