Foxglove - Kate Davies Cardigan Kit
Sale price
$90.00 CAD
Regular price $84.00 CADSize
A local wild flower that thrives on acid Highland soils, foxgloves line the route of many of my daily walks throughout Summer. I love their rich colours and, after spending some time with my camera thinking about their lines and structure, I was excited to develop a chart which meant that I could knit these beautiful flowers up into a yoke.
This is a “traditional” Shetland yoked cardigan, but with a more contemporary fit. It is a shorter length with waist and bust shaping, and whilst the colourwork motifs are placed to sit across the shoulders, the neckline is wider and will not ride as high as the majority of Shetland yokes. Worked in the round with steeks, this is a cardigan of classic design that should wear well and look great for years to come. Length can be added if desired by working extra rounds between the waist and bust shaping.
