KAEL Cardigan Pattern Kit in DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN by LANGYARNS
KAEL is a knitted unisex cardigan worked in DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN by LANGYARNS , a yarn made from 100% virgin wool (mulesing free) and produced using traditional Donegal spinning techniques.
DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN has a softly rustic character with a lighter, airier structure than classic tweeds. Retaining a small amount of natural spinning oil, the yarn transforms once knitted and washed: the fabric blooms, softens, and gains gentle elasticity, creating warmth without weight.
This kit includes the LANGYARNS DONEGAL WOOLEN SPUN required for your selected size and the original LANGYARNS PUNTO 87 pattern publication featuring KAEL.
