Cranachan Cardigan
Designed by Becky Baker for Rooster Yarns
PATTERN NOTES
The design of this snuggly, slouchy cardigan is inspired by artisan textiles and textured stripes. The perfect everyday garment, it features an all-over texture stripe pattern which shows off the halo and colour palette of Manos Alpaca Heather yarn beautifully.
Available in 9 sizes, Cranachan Cardigan’s textured design is a mix of stocking stitch, one-row colourwork, garter stitch and moss/seed stitch.
Pattern instructions include links to video tutorials explaining the various knitting techniques used.
