Cardigan No. 6’s allover lace patterning and relaxed wide silhouette create a delicate vintage looking garment. The three strands of mohair make it soft and cloud-like.

The lace pattern is inspired by the Japanese master Hitomi Shida and her book ‘Japanese Knitting Patterns’, but changed and adapted to be entirely unique.

The cardigan is knit from the top to bottom according to charts.
