The garter rows in the Dockside Cardigan from Swans Island create organic texture and direction, reminiscent of the striated granite on the Maine coastline. This open-front cardigan is knitted in Swans Island Natural Colors Collection (worsted weight), a sumptuous merino yarn that comes in a variety of colors found in nature — you can almost feel the ocean waves crashing on the rocks.
