Pattern description from Vogue Knitting, Fall 2008: “Tapestry, a colorway of ‘Cashmere Tweed’ by RYC/Westminster Fibers, sets a perfect scene in Storey’s cropped V-neck cardigan. Indeed, every stitch exudes warp and weft and texture, evidenced by the bas-relief of the bodice’s cabled panels and allover cabled-rib edging.”

“Standard-fitting cardigan in a cropped length with placed cables and mini-cable trims on all edges.”
