Traditional Gansey Pullover Pattern
by Sabine Domnick
Directions for this project in Cables, Diamonds, Herringbone, shown below. This classic gansey pattern can be seen widespread along the British coasts but you can create it for your loved one without leaving the comfort of your favorite knitting place. The pattern details may look difficult but, since the sweater is knit in the round with underarm gussets, it is easier than you can imagine. Clear instructions for sizing up or down are also given, so customizing for that special person will be a cinch. Shown in Comfy Cashew.- Needles:
- Sizes 4 and 6: 16", 24" and 32" circular
