I’m so excited to share that my fitted all-over lace Noura Cardigan pattern is now live, along with a tutorial series to guide you through it step by step. It’s seamless and worked top-down, but the sleeve caps are done at the same time as the yoke. The lace stitch is super easy to remember, and test knitters said it was their favourite part of the project. Plus, there are plenty of other fun techniques to try out! 🤩 P.S. Newsletter subscribers, check your inbox for your exclusive discount code! For everyone else, use code NOURA to save 20% until July 20th. Just a heads-up that if you run into any problems with the code, let me know before you complete the checkout as discounts can’t be applied afterward.

As has been suggested, it would be great to have one thread where people can show off their finished sweaters!!
