A gorgeous classic, Guernsey is a fine knit with cabled yoke and dropped shoulder, perfect for knitters who are new to cabling, with a sweet 2x2 ribbed neckline. The cables in this gorgeous fine Donegal tweed really make the most of the tweed neps, especially in the brighter shades! Knitted flat and seamed.
