My design ideas and advice: This simple garter stitch jumper is inspired by my Fiona Cardigan. The Fiona Cardigan has become a Purl &Jane classic. It was one of the first designs I created for my Skipton Studio and has been well loved and knitted by many knitters. It’s been lovely to see it become a classic go to cardigan in knitter’s wardrobes.
