Bourbon Barrel
Originally published under the name Denim Stripes in Gradient Stripes Book from Interweave Press, this pattern was renamed and re-released as a single PDF in September of 2021. It now features extended sizing and two different gradient options--one with five colors in addition to the original nine color gradient pattern.
As classic and comfortable as a well-worn pair of jeans, you’ll want to wear this boyfriend cardigan every day. The color patterns gently shift from dark to light in a pleasing gradient as the sweater is knit from the top down. Eight shades of blue alternate with a subtly contrasting gray yarn in a skinny stripes pattern.
