Combine snazzy stripes with a fun Fair Isle panel and you have the exquisite Sandness cardigan! It is hard to resist this one! Knit flat in pieces and seamed together, Sandness is a fabulous challenge to a knitter who loves colourwork. It’s knitted in Rialto DK, a super soft, plump merino wool that is machine washable - this is a timeless classic that you will enjoy knitting and wearing for years to come!
