AURA CARDIGAN KIT

Each kit includes the Pattern and the amount of Yarn required for your chosen size.
Aura is designed with set-in sleeves and round neck. The front openings are decorated with a band of a floral pattern with branches and leaves, and a delicate cable each side. The rest of the body, back and sleeves are worked in a simple patt from double crossings that a form an “x” shape.
The front bands and buttonholes are worked at the same time with the fronts. Neckbands and base bands are worked in double ribbing. The pieces are worked flat from the bottom up and sewn together.
