ABOUT THIS CARDIGAN KNITTING KIT

We’ve teamed up with our fellow sustainability pioneers Mother Of Pearl to turn their best–selling “Blake” cardigan into one of our signature DIY kits. This beauty is definitely for knowledgable knitters, using intarsia, stocking stitch and 1 x 1 rib to recreate the original creation. Stitched up in our 100% natural Alpachino Merino, this cardigan will make a mark on your wardrobe, not the planet.
