“This cardigan design was inspired by criss-crossing tree branches and twigs,” says Emma Vining.
“The stitch pattern has plenty of movement, thanks to zigzagging lines of eyelets combined with reverse stocking stitch texture. The branch pattern is also worked on the back of the cardigan, beginning in the centre and widening towards the upper shoulders. Two integral pockets are placed on the fronts.”
