The Midland Cardigan by Laura Penrose is a modern, oversized cardigan with a beautifully relaxed silhouette and thoughtful construction. Worked seamlessly from side to side, it features gently tapered shaping and a slightly cropped length that sits between the natural waist and the hips, making it a versatile layering piece you'll reach for throughout the year.
Designed with comfort and effortless style in mind, the cardigan showcases beautiful texture and clean lines. Laura's sample, knitted in Appledore DK in the colour Golden Knob, highlights the stunning stitch definition and rustic character of this British wool.
The cardigan is knitted seamlessly using a combination of flat and circular knitting techniques. The pattern includes short rows, a double-knit button band, and carefully shaped details, making it an enjoyable project for knitters looking to expand their skills.
