Oversized and comfy, squishy brioche rib, and color blocking effect of the yarn. It can’t get much better than this. The options for color combinations is endless, and with a painted yarn that has a large color repeat, you can customize how that color blocking effect looks in your sweater.
This V-neck cardigan is worked in pieces to take advantage of the color blocking effect. Worked mostly in one-color brioche, there’s a band of two-color brioche worked below the beginning of the front neck shaping, and a couple inches above the sleeve cuff.
