Mens Cable Effect Jumpers DK Knitting Pattern - 5809

£3.50
Knit a pair of classic, textured men's pullovers with this King Cole 5809 knitting pattern. Designed for Double Knitting (DK) yarns, this leaflet features instructions to knit two handsome garments: a traditional Crew Neck Sweater and a sophisticated Collared Sweater with a buttoned placket. Both designs are worked in an all-over textured pattern with neat 1x1 ribbed cuffs, hem, and collar trims. Knitted on 3.75mm and 4.00mm knitting needles, the sweaters produce a substantial, warm, and durable fabric with crisp stitch definition. We stock the printed pattern leaflet alongside a wide range of quality DK yarns right here in our shop, so you can easily choose your favourite shade and cast on straight away.
