Langstrath

Langstrath pays homage to the classic yoked sweater with pretty bands of colourwork and a relaxed fit. Knitted from the top down in Lore, short rows are used to create a flattering, comfortable fit, whilst the body features subtle waist shaping. The traditional corrugated rib with an I-Cord bind-off is the perfect finishing touch.
