Diamonds and Purls in the Gansey tradition! These textures and patterns are wonderfully balanced. Cables framed with Seed Stitch ribbing form the saddles, sleeves, and neck. Diamonds and purl panels wrap around you. The feel of the wool/silk/bamboo fiber is magnificent!
The bodice is worked in the round and the sleeves, from the top down. The sleeve saddle is worked in the traditional short row method.
The pattern includes technique instruction, pattern charts, and schematics.
