ABOUT THIS KIT
Designed exclusively by Berlin-based brand Maiami, this cardigan is inspired by legendary TV show Miami Vice. This kit uses two strands of mohair and an intarsia technique (hello scary knitting word) that is sure to do Don Johnson proud. Maiami’s signature style uses a base neutral colour to create that magical melange effect, we’ve used ‘Snow White’ which is your colour A and runs through the whole cardigan.
