Includes yarn and pattern

The Old Irish goddess of Spring and fertility, Brigid was invoked on the holy day of Imbolc to ensure the end of Winter and offer protection to homes and livestock. The evening before, clothing was laid outside to be blessed by the wandering goddess with powers of healing and protection. The Brigid Cardigan is worked from the bottom up, with a saddle shoulder and a generous button band that extends into a shawl collar. The saddle shoulder allows the antler cabling along the sleeves to extend all the way to the collar. This is a download pattern only.
