Product details

- Suggested gauge: 12gg
- Weight: Regular
Overview Cardigan stitch is combined with pointelle, where small eyelets are opened by transferring stitches. The openwork lightens the fabric and lets it breathe, while the cardigan ribs keep it lofty. Works well for transitional knitwear and layering pieces.
The structure A pointelle eyelet is made by moving a stitch onto the neighbouring needle, which leaves a small, neat hole. Set into cardigan stitch, the eyelets break up the ribs and draw the pattern.
Feel and performance Full in the hand but breathable, so it works across seasons. The wool and cashmere blend keeps the eyelets open and the pattern sharp.
Best for
- Spring and autumn sweaters
- Cardigans
