Tarayuela vest pattern - Lanae tricot

The Tarayuela cardigan was created in collaboration with Audrey Borrego of Yarnflakes, who was responsible for grading, writing, and having this pattern, which I really wanted to offer you, tested.

It's a top-down raglan cardigan with cables on the fronts. It has short rows on the collar for a rounded effect, slipped stitches on the button bands, seamless ribbing throughout, and tubular bind-offs. It's a versatile and easy-to-adapt design. It has a cable or lace option for the front motif.

The pattern is available in French and English in digital version.
