Becket’s alpaca & wool blend works up fast into this sumptuous A-line cardigan coat that will quickly become a cool weather favorite. Deep double seed stitch cuffs, front bands, and a bold shaped collar add elegant touches to its overlapping front closure. A single large-scale cable on each front panel and sleeves creates visual impact. Instructions are included for optional patch pockets. Sonora is knit flat in one piece from the bottom up to the underarms. The collar stitches are picked up along the neck edges and front bands and knit back and forth in rows. The optional patch pockets are worked separately and then seamed to the fronts.
