MORTMAIN YARN KITS USING OUR FABULOUS HAND-DYED EXCELANA NORTH DK WEIGHT, 100% BRITISH WOOL ARE NOW AVAILABLE TO ORDER. Please note, this kit does not include the Mortmain pattern. The pattern is only available by purchasing my new book, Echoes, which you can do by clicking on the link above. Your kit will be sent at the same time as your book.
The Mortmain cardigan was inspired by the author Dodie Smith (1896-1990), and it can be worn on its own or as a twinset with the [productlink: Dodie = pattern – dodie :productlink] sweater for maximum vintage appeal with a look that is both long-lasting and timeless. Mortmain is a quintessential yoked cardigan that is simple to knit, with two sleeve options and a body length that is easy to adjust. Mortmain is worked in the round from the bottom up. The sleeves are knitted separately before they are joined to the body at which point the yoke is worked. On a number of rounds at the centre of the pattern, three colours are worked on a round. These rounds can be worked either by knitting with three colours, or duplicate stitch can be worked after the knitting is finished to add the third shade.
Mortmain is knitted using [productlink: Susan Crawford Excelana North Lightweight DK = excelana-dk :productlink] and is shown here in two colourways, using the same shades in different combinations;
Colourway One features [productlink: Trefusis = excelana-dk-trefusis :productlink] a deep, dark green as the main colour with the yoke also using [productlink: Virginia = excelana-dk-virginia :productlink], [productlink: Sheffield Steel = excelana-dk-sheffield-steel :productlink] and [productlink: Snowdrop = excelana-dk-snowdrop :productlink].
Colourway Two features [productlink: Virginia = excelana-dk-virginia :productlink] a striking art deco green as the main colour with the yoke also using [productlink: Trefusis = excelana-dk-trefusis :productlink], [productlink: Sheffield Steel = excelana-dk-sheffield-steel :productlink] and [productlink: Snowdrop = excelana-dk-snowdrop :productlink].
