Tortuga Cardigan
This whimsical, light-as-air cardigan is an homage to the noble turtle. The body of the cardigan features the lace pattern "Tracks of the Turtle" and the edges of the cuffs and hem are waves. And, making its way slowly up the lapels...it's a turtle parade!
The cardigan is seamless and uses provisional cast-ons and grafting for the modular construction. The edges and lapels are worked in place. The loose-fitting garment comes in 4 sizes ranging from 37 to 60 inches. A detailed cheat sheet is included to assist with the grafting and stitch patterns are provided in both charted and written formats.
