Love this pattern? Every week, I send a short, chatty email about what I’m making, what I’m thinking, and what’s coming next. Sign up for the Truly Myrtle Mini-Mag! – it’s like a letter from the friend who designed this.✨

Bramble is exclusively available to Wardrobe Toolbox members until late 2027.

Meet Bramble, your new sip-cocoa-by-the-fire, frosty-dash-to-the-letterbox, pick-winter-veggies cardigan.

Knitted from the top down, with pretty eyelet lace tumbling down each raglan line and scattered at the cuffs and hem before squishy rib takes you all the way to the bottom, Bramble is proof that even your cosiest layer can have a bit of prettiness going on.

Room enough for a shirt underneath, snug enough to feel like a proper hug – Bramble is the cosy, oh-so-soft layer you reach for before you’ve even realised you’re cold.

With both charts and written instructions included, Bramble is perfect for new sweater knitters and everyone else who’s looking for an “I can’t live without her” cardy for their handmade wardrobe.
