Berroco Gorse is gorgeous lace-front cardigan that is knit seamlessly with a unique construction. The back is completed to the underarms first, then the sleeves are knit in the round from the bottom up. The yoke and fronts are all worked together, picking up stitches from one side of the back, working up and around the back neck, and then down the other side. Using Berroco Ultra Alpaca, your cardigan will be soft, cozy, and warm. Lace pattern is both charted and written out.
