The cables keep things moving along and, once established, are pretty easy to memorize, making Quinn a fun knit, with just the right amount of adventure. The shoulders are sloped to avoid a too-boxy fit, but there is no shaping in the body, streamlining both the knitting and the wearing. The resulting cardigan looks impressive but gives up nothing in comfort!
You can get the pattern from the designer. The matching wool is available in our shop.
