North Coast Cardigan Pattern

Pattern Design by Cheryl Toy

Knit in the rich tapestry of traditional Scandinavian hues, the North Coast Cardigan beautifully captures the essence of the misty shores and sea breezes. For those damp, cool days, a robustly cables cardigan is your best ally. The North Coast Cardigan, adorned with intricate and deeply-etched cabling wraps you in luxurious warmth, keeping you impervious to the relentless North Sea winds.
Its standout feature is a wide Celtic cable, gracefully framed by beaded ribbing, adorned with textured diamonds and elegant braids. Within its cozy embrace, knitted-in pockets patiently await to offer solace to to chilly hands, while the vertically ribbed button bands evolve into a generously folded shawl collar, ready to envelop you in a warm embrace. This hand-knit masterpiece is more than just a sweater; it's a testament to craftmanship, evoking the rugged beauty of the North Coast in every stitch.

The sample is knit in Seven Seas
