Product Description

Bambasala is an Aran-weight Cardigan with sneaky pockets – they're double knitted but there are also instructions for simpler inline pockets (tutorial link).

The yarn, Little Grey Sheep Gotland Aran is produced on Emma's and Susie's farm and has warmth, a slight halo, loft, and just the right sort of whiff of sheep to it. I want to knit with it forever.

Just like the Ziggurat (Simple Ziggurat), Bambasala has these features:

  • tailored shoulders
  • is seamless
  • is knitted top down
  • optional waist (and rear) shaping
  • optional bust darts
  • bold colour blocks
  • simple, pleasing lines
  • set in sleeves

The collar, buttonbands, and pockets are also knitted as you go. Not a seam in sight. Not one.
