This kit is to make our favourite cardigan, the Verona Cardigan by our dear friend, Neringa / Ruke Knit (@rukeofficial).
In the kit you will receive the amount of yarn you will need in Aran weight + a printed copy of the pattern + a digital copy of the pattern.
The Verona cardigan is a hip-length style knit with a V-neck and long balloon sleeves. Cardigan body and sleeves are worked in different colour solid stripes. This sweater is worked top-down in Stockinette stitch pattern in raglan using increases M1L and M1R. The front edge is worked in double knit only after knitting the whole sweater. Neck, cuffs and hem are worked in Rib stitch pattern. The body and sleeves of the sweater are worked straight, therefore they can be easily made longer - so more yarns should be estimated. Verona cardigan is a timeless knit that will fit well with your favourite clothes.

Each skein is hand-dyed in small batches and variations between skeins should be expected. We dye and store all of our yarn in our smoke-free and pet-free home. Due to the individual nature of hand-dyed yarn, I would always recommend alternating skeins.
If you require larger quantities or have any questions then please do not hesitate to contact me.
The skeins has been photographed in natural light to give you the best representation of colour, but please be aware that screens and monitors can differ slightly. I cannot guarantee that your device's display of any colour will be accurate.
High quality acid dyes are properly set before washing and rinsing twice to assure the colour adheres correctly, however some bright or extreme colours may bleed slightly in the first wash.
Thank you for stopping by!
