cabled handknit cardigan modeled on a woman

Peach Bourbon Tea by Thea Colman is an all-over cabled handknit cardigan that shines in a yarn that has good stitch definition. Deep texture comes from wrapped twists at center back and along each front, while more traditional cable columns are paired on either side of the body. Knit from the bottom up, this elegant mix of cable motifs provides both knitting interest and visual contrast. Cables continue from top to bottom of the body beautifully transitioning uninterrupted into the hem. Cable instructions are both charted and written.

Jill knit her cardigan in Eriu Elements DK luxury Irish yarn, a 100% Irish wool (BFL and Romney lambswool. This stunning Farm-to-Yarn wool is grown in Ireland and spun by Donegal Yarns, the iconic woollen mill. This was a "Rhinebeck 2025" sweater design, and Jill knit her sweater in time to wear at this year's New York State Sheep & Wool Festival (Rhinebeck).
