sample_available_with_note


 

Inspired by a cardigan shown on the New York City Fashion Runway, Gabrielle is an unusual addition to any women’s wardrobe. Knit in a fingering weight yarn; it is perfect for all seasons. The design combines four different pattern stitches. The cast-on to the underarm is knit in one piece from the right center front to the left center front, thus avoiding side seams. The neckband and front bands are crocheted as well as the easy to make buttons. The easy to follow pattern includes:

     •    Schematic for each piece
     •    A helpful tracking sheet
     •    Diagrams and full explanations for techniques
     •    A link for substitute yarn
     •    A pattern helpline
