This beautiful cardigan is perfect for wearing indoors on those cold winter days or outside for when it’s not quite cold enough for a coat.
Certainly keeps off the wind chill and keeps you warm and snug. Looks smart with any outfit, would be beautiful over an Autumn dress!

Created using a variety of stitches which I explain in detail along the way.
This pattern is written in English, and comes packed with over 120 photos to help those visual learners.
I will show you how to create the wheat stitch, how to form the cardigan itself and which adjustments need to be made if you want to make a larger or smaller cardigan.
I will also show you how to add ribbing to cuffs and around the cardigan itself
