Peacock Eyes Cardigan is a seamless cardigan worked from top to bottom all in one piece. It features a round yoke which is beautifully ornamented with lace motifs resembling the eyes on a peacock’s tail.
The cardigan is suitable for wool blends as well as cotton ones. Solid and semi-variegated yarns are highly recommended in order to show the unique beauty of the lace yoke.

The pattern is available as a single download and also as a part of "On a Peacock's Tail" e-book.
