Feeling the cold? Those very talented folk at Australian Country Spinners have devised this pattern for you to download for free. We love it! It’s just the thing for the cooler days and nights. And it’s made for the beginner knitter in mind (though, of course, don’t let that put you off if you are an intermediate or advanced knitter).
It’s a ‘one size fits all’ and the pattern uses Cleckheaton Country 8-ply.
