SPACE CARDIGAN

Perfect for a little star gazer with playful planet elbow patches and sweet, wooden star buttons.

The Space Cardigan is suitable for a confident beginner able to work a cardigan from the top down with raglan sleeves. Intarsia is used to add the planet elbow patches and running stitch is used to add the planet ring. (The pattern contains a link to our tutorial for how to use running stitch embroidery on knitting).

I hope you enjoy making our Space Cardigan and I would LOVE to see your works in progress and finished projects.

Enjoy!
