Gailleann
Gaillean is an open cardigan featuring a Celtic inspired cable collar band and seed stitch all over. Named after an old Irish word for “storm” Gailleann is made to keep you warm through the wildest squall. The seed stitch body and inset pockets add a durability to this sweater that helps it double as a coat in more moderate climates. Magpie Fiber’s sturdy Domestic Worsted yarn shows beautiful definition in both the cables and the seed stitch. Gailleann is knit from the top-down with raglan shaping, knitting the cable collar band simultaneously.
