Description
The cable-stitch pattern of this design beautifully highlights the Lorna’s Laces Haymarket swirling upward against a solid background. The 1×1 cable can be easily executed without a cable needle and will significantly speed up your progress once you master the technique. The result is a squishy fabric that makes this set super warm and cozy, and the pattern includes two color options!
