Pilkington Cardigan

I love the simplicity of this cardigan. It’s an easy knit, worked from the top down with a plain stocking stitch body that really lets the delicious hand-dyed yarn do all the work. Finished off with a knitted -on cabled border, it’s perfect for layering in winter, or as a little cover-up though out the warmer months. If you prefer longer sleeves don’t worry - instructions for those are also included.
