Discontinued. This digital pattern is no longer available online.

Lightweight, asymmetrical and with minimal manipulation, Moore is the cardigan you can always turn to.

The vertical lines create texture and a drop of colour, not to mention a thinner figure - try your own mix or use a single shade for a more delicate feel.
