Product Description
Ganseys have a classic style and look that draw a knitter in, but the fitting on a traditional gansey leaves something to be desired. My Grand View gansey adds modern shaping to the classic appeal of this sweater!
Construction notes This pullover is worked from the bottom up starting with the Channel Island cast-on which is traditional for ganseys. The pattern a complete package for gansey knitting. It is written for nine sizes and includes notes on ease and picking the right size for you. I also include step-by-step instruction for the traditional Channel Island cast-on technique. The diamond pattern and cables are both charted and written out line-by-line.
Skills Knit and Purl ssk, ktog, m1, m1p cabling slipping sts wrap & turns channel island cast on, or your standard method three needle bind off All techniques described in the pattern
I want to thank Chris Church (rchrispy on Ravelry) for providing the technical editing.
