Semilla Cardigan Kirsten Joel Purl Soho Good Wool

The Semilla Cardigan is a bottom-up, seamed v-neck cardigan featuring an all-over seed stitch and eyelet lace pattern. It includes classic 1x1 ribbing at the hems and button band, and a modern, updated cropped length.

The back and front pieces are worked flat and seamed. Armhole shaping maintains a consistent drop shoulder seam location across all sizes. The drop shoulders are shaped with a sloped bind-off, and instructions are provided for optional cup shaping using short rows.

The v-neck is designed to be flattering and slightly flirty without being too revealing.

Tidal Creek was inspired by the many salt marshes sprinkled throughout Charleston, South Carolina. There is a magic that happens where the pluff mud creates tall, strong, vibrant green grasses that reach confidently into the bright blue sky.

The body of Tidal Creek is worked flat in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Armhole shaping is worked to keep the drop shoulder seam location consistent across the size range. The drop shoulders are shaped with a sloped bind off, and instructions are provided for an optional cup shaping with short rows.
