Bere Sweater
Now available as an individual pattern or part of the digital club! This will include all the patterns, workshops, and zoom lives from the Celtic Knits Club 2024. Yarn kits are also available here.
This sweater uses large dramatic cables to create a sweater that will really stand out. It is knit in the round from the bottom up, dividing at the armhole. The sleeves are then knit from the top down using short row shaping to create the sleeve cap.
