Ancient Soul is a comfortable, seamless cardigan mostly worked flat, from the top down. The cardigan features an easy combination of plain stst and rib, short rows to shape the wide collar, an i-cord closure and extra long raglan sleeves.
Merino Worsted is a single ply, Aran weight yarn that allows you to knit an extremely soft and dense fabric. One of the characteristics of pure wool single ply yarns is that they felt slightly during knitting. Don’t be afraid: the felting process helps to protect your garment against pilling!
