This cardigan looks really striking and although worked all in stocking stitch, the offsetting of the stripes gives it a lovely contemporary feel.
If pink is your thing, the subtle shades chosen here look super. But with such a great choice of colours available in this yarn, you’ll be spoilt for choice!
