KNITTING PATTERN - 'RE-RELEASE' - Frida Cardigan & Hat - P246

$8.80

Cardigan is worked from the top down in one piece, sleeves are worked in the round so there is no seaming required. The matching hat is also worked in the round.
The Cardigan has a lovely detailed pattern around the lower body and also around the hat. If the Cardigan and hat are worked up in Wild Earth yarns they will certainly be very cozy and warm as I feel this is a slightly denser 8ply DK yarn.

SKILL LEVEL - Intermediate

Please note: If you want your finished garment to look the same as the pictured garment, I recommended blocking the garment as the pattern does tend to pull in your work.
