This is another, that when I saw the cable pattern on this cardi I had to buy the pattern. I have made this 6-12 month size, and will hopefully get this in the post to my niece for her little boy before he grows too much! I just need to finish sewing it up, and …

Pattern kindly provided for the MKAL by Therése Hedlund-Heap The pattern was released over a 4 week period, and could be knit ‘flat’ or ‘in the round’.

I bought this lovely fabric at the knitting and stitching show in Harrogate in 2018. I eventually decided to try and use it to copy a tunic top that I had worn a lot and was looking worse for wear!! This is what it looked like back in 2013!! What I didn’t take into consideration …
