This bulky cardigan of Falkland wool is bound to keep you delightfully warm on a cold day. The oversized, boxy shape allows you to wear layers without feeling frumpy, and a generous ribbed hem creates a V-neck when buttoned.

All pieces are worked flat and then seamed. Neckline ribbing and buttons are added last. Made in Half Brioche Stitch to provide a thick, cozy cardigan for men and women.

Kit includes pdf & printed pattern, button selection and yarn. Please add your button preference to "Notes" at checkout for faster delivery. For yarn winding services, click here.
