Description

Barnacle is a sumptuously soft and warm sweater featuring an elegant cabled stitch pattern. The sinuous stitch pattern was inspired by tiny barnacles perched on rough rock, and forms a wide rib effect across the garment. Worked in The Fibre Co. Tundra, this rugged inspiration becomes gorgeously luxurious and a pleasure to wear. The sweater is knit flat. The neckband is added after the pieces have been seamed together.
