Emmer Hat and Cardigan - patterns release

Happy knitting Dear Friends! Today I would like to share a pair of first pattern for 2023 – Emmer Hat and Emmer Cardigan.

Both the hat and cardigan are knitted with DK weight yarn and feature beautiful lacy stitch, which I created from scratch while was looking for perfect lacy stitch for sleeves. It turned out very beautiful and I thought it would be great for hat too. So, here a pair of beautiful patterns which great for both winter and spring knitting.

Emmer cardigan is timeless stylish garment with modern silhouette, dropped shoulders, deep V-neck and wide lacy sleeves. It is knitted seamlessly up to underarms. The body of cardigan is knitted in stockinette stitch with a few columns of twisted stitches along imaginary side seams. The cuffs, bottom ribbing and button band are knitted in twisted rib. 

Emmer hat is knitted in the round seamlessly with pretty lacy stitch all the way around. 

For my samples I used Appledore DK yarn from John Arbon Textiles  in beautiful shade Whimple Wonder. This yarn is slightly itchy for sensitive skin but it is really warm and great for winter.

Both patterns for Emmer Hat and Emmer Cardigan are available from Ravelry with 15% off with code NEW15. Offer valid until 29th of January 2023.
