This yoked cardigan has a cosy, fluffy fabric, as it’s knitted using a strand of mohair boucle DK yarn held together with a strand of baby alpaca 4ply; both these yarns are from the Yorkshire yarn company World of Wool. Lisa Richardson’s design is knitted top down, with a pattern of bobbles and lace around the yoke. She has then finished her project by embroidering on tiny flowers and leaves using oddments of yarn from her stash.
