Priscilla is a slightly cropped cardigan richly decorated with fine lace stitch patterns, cables and bobbles and finished with a charming wavy placket. It is worked top-down and completely seamless. Every size has its own, unique pattern layout to achieve the most satisfying look and to keep the same vibe and style as the original sample.
I am looking for intermediate knitters who love detailed lace patterns (but you don't have to be an experienced tester!) as the pattern includes several intermediate techniques.
The test is conducted in ENGLISH only – please keep in mind that you MUST be able to communicate in this language, because the pattern and all communication is in English.
A Facebook group is used for discussions – this way we can easily and conveniently help each other, share progress, motivate and solve problems. If you don’t have an account there, you can still participate in the test, but please inform me beforehand.
Please apply only by email: contact@marzenakolaczek.com
Important: please include the size you would like to knit in the message. If it is still available, I'll follow up with an email with all important details within 2-3 days.
I will send all the testers more detailed pictures by email. Thank you! 💘](https://marzenakolaczek.com/wp-content/uploads/malina-instagram/310575191_588790333029553_5097817124690855625_n.webp)
