Worn by Di in the Game of Wool!

Inspired by the Irish Pirate Queen, Grace O'Malley, who famously held detente with Queen Elizabeth 1st, sailing up the river Thames with her Fleet to meet and form an alliance. It was reported at the time that she was wearing a rather ragged green cloak...I felt it was time to give her a sartorial makeover for the visit! Fabulous patterning, dropped stitch cables, herringbone, Zig Zag travelling lace and linen stitch...knitted in one piece, with pockets. This can be knitted in our Lalland Lambswool Aran. Choose whichever colour you would like and specify this in your order.

Crowdie, Firebird, Kelpie, Lovage, Storm, Corryvreckan, Oak, Kingfisher, Swift or Magnolia.
A real treat to knit.
