Introducing the Lura Petal Cardigan! This soft, bulky cardigan is what will be your favorite to wear to school, work, or even just at home to stay cozy!

All of my designs have a focal point, and this design features a puffy petal stitch pattern that you will enjoy from front to back. The petals line the front panels and the bottom of the back to bring a texture you’ll enjoy for the entire colder season.

The name was given due to the look of the yarn I used for this design. The beautiful C380 color way of Koigu Wool Designs worsted-weight Chelsea yarn gives a marbles effect that reminded me a bit of squid ink! In Galician, one of the languages spoken in an autonomous region of Spain, lura means squid.

This cardigan is in sizes S-XL (based on CYC standards).

Koigu Chelsea C380 has 125 yds/hank
