Experienced: Simple shaping, but stranded knitting and duplicate stitch

A handsome cardigan goes rustic, with eagles and geometric patterns that mimic woven Native American blankets. Worked in Rialto DK, it features a ribbed shawl collar that transitions into the ribbed button band.The arrow and eagle details are crafted in duplicate stitch when the knitting is completed.
