The pattern is written out row by row, so no working out required (I think my poor tech editor was ready to throw in the towel after this experience!!) The pattern has been test knitted (a huge thank you to the wonderful test knitters), and technical edited. I am absolutely thrilled with the final garment which is such a simple easy knit and is sure to become your go-to cardigan.

The yarn used for the pictured garment was from Ozifarmer’s Market -- 8ply DK, colours ‘Vera’ and Taupe.
The yarn was hand dyed to my specific requirements and I was absolutely thrilled with the outcome. Dawn decided to name the gradient colour after me…. ‘Vera’, very honoured.
