PILAR Cardigan Pattern Kit in BABY ALPACA by LANGYARNS
PILAR is a women’s knitted cardigan worked in BABY ALPACA by LANGYARNS , a yarn made from 100% baby alpaca . Naturally soft and warm, baby alpaca fibres create a smooth, lightweight fabric with a refined handle and gentle drape.
The cardigan features an open front with a deep eyelet rib worked at the base, adding structure and visual interest at the hem. From this point, the fabric transitions into calm stocking stitch, continuing cleanly up to the neckline and allowing the garment to fall naturally around the body.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS BABY ALPACA required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS FATTO A MANO 286 pattern publication featuring PILAR.
