This cardigan is worked in a gorgeous pure Alpaca yarn, beautifully soft and cosy to wear, and perfect even for dressy occasions.

The styling, although simple and classic in shape, being worked mainly in stocking stitch with moss stitch borders, has really attractive and flattering curved front borders.

There’s a real hint of glamour in this elegent cardigan.

NB - for the 4 largest sizes, you may find it helpful to use a circular needle, just for holding the stitches on the frill on the lower back
