Metamorphic Cardigan — A Stunning Self-Striping Showpiece
Bold, textural and utterly captivating — the Metamorphic Cardigan is a patchwork of colour and stitch that showcases the magic of self-striping yarn at its very best. Knitted in cosy half fisherman's rib with a beautiful tubular neckline and raglan sleeves, this is a pattern that rewards every stitch with something spectacular.
Pattern Notes
The fronts and back begin immediately in half fisherman's rib from cast-on, creating a rich, squishy fabric that lets the self-striping colour do the talking. The generous sleeves open with a one-by-one rib for a slightly ballooned cuff, and a vertical ribbed button placket enhances the patchwork stripe effect throughout. A truly impressive make for the advanced knitter.
Recommended Yarn — DMC Brio XL
We recommend knitting this pattern in DMC Brio XL, available at The Wool Shop. A chunky weight yarn with a beautiful self-striping effect, each ball is 100g / 155m — perfect for achieving the stunning patchwork stripe look this pattern is designed for.
