Inspired by the gansey sweaters of the N.E of Enlgand. I’ve included a central Tree of Life panel in this design on the back and front, with a rope ladder pattern at each side on the lower sections and sleeves. On both sides of the yoke is a lovely, textured 4 row pattern, which is also used at the lower border. Worked bottom up and with full written instructions.
