This cardigan takes advantage of alpaca's wonderful drape, falling gently from the shoulders. It can be worn open or closed with a shawl pin. Featuring a long collar which falls to the back, or can be wrapped at the neck for extra warmth. A simple lace stitch at the extended fronts adds visual interest by altering the stripes.

Note: You can knit this cardi in one solid color or striped as shown. Shown in Fab Yarns Alpaca Tweed (2 or 4 skeins for striped, 2 or 3 for solid version)
