Selsey Cardigan in the Knitter Issue 110

My new Selsey cardigan design is on the cover of The Knitter Magazine! I have used multiple stitch patterns for lots of contrast in this design.

The lower borders and cuffs are worked in a textured slip stitch mosaic pattern. Using shades of light and dark blue creates a fascinating optical illusion. The shades reverse half way through the border.

The main body is knitted in two colours and has a garter stitch ridge stripe in the dark blue shade. The sleeves have a mosaic stitch cuff and are then knitted in stocking stitch in the light blue shade.

The lovely yarn, Sublime Extra Fine Merino Wool, is soft and lightweight. The Riviera and Indigo shades show off the contrasting stitch patterns really well. You can read more about Selsey and all the other beautiful designs in this issue on The Yarn Loop Website or on Ravelry.
