Madrigal Cardigan and Vest
The two lace patterns are slightly different.
Cardigan:
This short sleeved, open cardigan features a horseshoe lace stitch. based on the traditional Shetland pattern. The sleeves are shaped as part of the front and back sections; hems and bands are worked in simple garter stitch. The pattern calls for Debbie Bliss’s Eco Baby Yarn,which is soft organic cotton with a silky sheen.

Vest:
Like the cardigan that forms the other part of this set, this longer-length vest top is worked in a horseshoe lace pattern, but here the stitch is subtly different, to provide a harmonious yet interesting contrast when the vest is worn together with the cardigan.
