Andean Artistry
This is the cover sweater.
This cardigan is inspired by Andean and Peruvian knitting and textiles. The slightly hairy mohair blend yarn has a sheen and luxurious feel. Both color stranding and intarsia are used for the color patterning and duplicate stitch is used for the flower centers. Set-in sleeves and angled shoulders shaped by short rows give it a fitted look. The neck, sleeves, front opening and lower body are edged with a picot stitch and hemmed.
