The Ethel Lace Front Panel Cardigan Kit is a beautiful project for knitters who enjoy soft texture, delicate detail and easy wearability.
 
Ethel is a cropped cardigan featuring a flattering V-neckline, button front and elegant lace panels through the sleeves and front. Worked in Louisa Harding Tulla Tweed, this cardigan balances gentle colour variation with airy stitch detail, creating a finished piece that feels light and special. It is the kind of cardigan that layers beautifully over dresses, tops and camis, adding softness and handmade texture without feeling heavy.

Romantic knitting patterns that still feel wearable and grounded
Projects where stitch pattern and yarn work together beautifully

Spun with Purpose
 
Tulla Tweed is a worsted-weight chainette yarn spun in Italy from a thoughtful blend of 49% non-mulesed virgin wool, 26% recycled cotton, 13% recycled nylon, plus touches of acrylic and viscose for strength and structure. The chainette construction, in which a fine strand is braided into a hollow, tubular shape, gives the yarn a plush, resilient feel with beautiful drape and reduced pilling.
 
The self-striping colourways and tweedy flecks add gentle depth and movement through the fabric, while remaining soft enough not to compete with the lace detail. OEKO-TEX certified and spun in Italy, it is an eco-conscious yarn with real personality.
