Why you'll love it

Knit the Blake 798, an easy-wearing v-neck cardigan with raglan sleeves worked in smooth stocking stitch. It's a relaxed, everyday layer with a flattering neckline – calm, satisfying knitting and a soft drape to wear. Make it in a cool cotton for summer or a lightweight wool for transeasonal layering.

You can make Blake in any of these four yarns:

  • Fiddlesticks Peppin 4 – a 100% Australian fine merino with a lovely springy twist. Soft and shows off your stitches beautifully, a proper workhorse 4ply you'll come back to again and again.
  • Bellissimo 4 – 100% extra-fine Australian merino, so smooth and soft it's gorgeous against the skin (yes, baby-knit soft), with just enough body to keep your stitches crisp and your cardigan holding its shape for years.
  • Fiddlesticks Posie – a soft 4ply cotton with a pretty matte finish and lovely stitch definition. Gentle on the hands to knit and breathable to wear, it's perfect once the weather warms up.
  • Bellissimo Airlie – a 4ply mercerised cotton with a delicate sheen and crisp stitch definition. It drapes beautifully and stays cool and breathable – made for easy summer layers.
