JOIN US FOR THE AoK FALL KAL!
See here for details!
The attribute I admire most about alpaca yarn is its
wonderful drape. To take advantage of this, I designed
a cardigan that falls gently from the shoulders and can
be worn open, or closed with a shawl pin. Featuring a
long collar which falls to the back, or can be wrapped
at the neck for extra warmth. A simple lace stitch at the
extended fronts distorts the stripe pattern attractively.
Finished Chest Circumference: 31 (33 1/2, 35, 36 1/2,
39, 41, 42 1/2, 45, 46 1/2, 48 1/2)”/78.5 (85, 89, 92.5, 99,
104, 108, 114, 118, 123)cm
Note: This measurement is based on finished Back width
doubled. Actual finished circumference is wider, as Fronts
have added width. See Schematic for full measurements.
