Contrails Cardigan Pattern

According to designer Sarah Chapman, the Contrails Cardigan was inspired by the long feathery contrails left in the sky by passing planes. Have you ever daydreamed as you watched clouds pass and traced the contrails across the sky?

Note: This project is worked with one strand of Marina and two strands of Cabrito held together throughout.
