A butterfly inspired cardigan knitted from the top down with a steek in front. Lots of details to indulge in, such as corrugated ribbing, I-cord bind-offs and stranded knitting.
Worn with negative ease, 9 sizes up to 131cm at the bust.
Mohair is held double, creating a lovely feel and solid look in the colourwork and ribbings.
Inspired by the wing patterns on the Blue tiger butterfly.
