Dimensional openwork fabric- formed from garter-stitch leaf motifs and knit in an intricately variegated shade of Koigu Wool Designs’ Kersti- elevates an open-front cardigan from apparel to art piece. It begins with a single motif; at the midway point, stitches are cast on, forming the subsequent motif. A drop-stitch column divides the pieces. Continuing in this way forms a tiered panel, establishing the cardigan’s lower edge; each successive panel reverses direction for a rippled effect. Garter-stitch bands refine the front edges.
