Errata/ Clarification: RT (Right Twist): Knit into front of second stitch on left needle, leaving stitch on needle, then knit into front of first stitch on left needle and slip the two stitches from needle together.

Snowburst Cardigan is knit in celebration of that first snow of the season, the fast falling and fast accumulating celebration of change. There may still be a few leaves, maybe even flowers still hanging around and they are transformed by a lovely blanket of soft cold snow.

The Cardigan is a nod to that transformation. Fast to throw on and quickly change that nip of cold that arrives when Fall transitions to Winter.

Featuring classic two color stranded colorwork on the yoke and a right twist cable on the bands and cuffs. This polished piece of knitting may quickly become a favorite in your wardrobe.
