Bristol Ivy Fougasse PDF

Inspired by a provencal bread slashed or sculpted to resemble ears of wheat, Bristol Ivy’s Fougasse sweater is a collared cardigan with twists and rays of cables like sheaves of wheat in the field. Knit this pattern in a plump worsted weight wool with an excellent stitch definition. The sweater is knit flat in pieces from the bottom up and then seamed. The cable patterns are in chart form only.
