This little sweater features a double moss-filled cross-over chevron at the centre of the front and back, the remainder being worked in stocking stitch. This makes a lighter sweater than a full aran, and gives you enough detail to work with if you are new to the cable needle. Make it in a neutral colour for an every-day play sweater, or use pastel or stained-glass colours with fancier buttons for a dressed-up look. The chevron pattern is also featured on the roomy little hat. Ardan is pronounced “are-dawn” and means “high aspiration.”
