Skipwith is a pattern from Rachel Atkinson that was first seen in the knitting book Daughter of a Shepherd Volume 1: Beginnings. It is now available as a loose pattern.
This is everything that Rachel wanted in a cardigan; light fabric, quick to knit, interesting but unfussy details and minimal finishing.
Skipwith was born out of a desire for an everyday, go anywhere cardigan, and will quickly become a wardrobe staple.
It is knitted in a sportweight – Ram Jam or Brume 4ply – taking between 2-4 skeins of Brume 4 ply. ( sizes 81cm -142cm)
