Scottish Ale
A warm & rugged Aran Sweater for men (or women!)I designed this sweater for my friend, whose mum used to knit him sweaters as he was growing up, then rip them out and re-knit in a larger size as he grew. This sweater is going to serve more as a coat to be worn over other layers as he visits construction job sites.Please note: All of the cable patterns repeat in a different number of rows, 4, 8, and 12.
