Fabulous stitch definition in this chunky cotton give the lace panels in this gorgeous cardigan such presence - and if you’re new to lace, it is so much easier to knit in a chunkier yarn to begin with, making it a great first lace knit. The garter stitch sleeves and band give great weight to anchor the drape, and it’s a cardigan that will sit happily over dresses and jeans alike. Dulcie is a delight to knit and a joy to wear, with its smooth, soft, gentle cloudy air blown cotton content.
