Teakwood Bulky Cardigan
Another in my Teakwood series! This cable and lace pattern is quite addicting, it is easy to memorize and oh so much fun to work. The bulky gauge makes for a very quick knit, you can have this done before the end of Winter and also use it as a Spring jacket. The body is worked from the bottom up, the stitches sleeves are picked up and worked down in the round, the only seaming is at the shoulders and back of the collar.
