Huia Cardigan Pattern by Truly Myrtle

Knitted in airy heavy-lace-weight yarn, Huia Cardigan  is full of gorgeous little details and is the perfect light-yet-warm layer.

You’ll start at the top and create the back yoke before picking up the fronts and working them to the armhole where you’ll join the fronts and back.

The back neck is a fun V shape and the front bands include a pretty lace detail that is worked with the body, so once you’re at the hem you’re done! No bands to pick up later. Set-in, three-quarter length sleeves give a flattering fit, and buttoned cuffs add a lovely twist.

Suitable for experienced knitters and adventurous beginners, Huia includes written and charted instructions and is a dream to knit and wear.
