NOTES

Twin Set is made up of a Vest and Cardigan. The Vest is made using the Shell Stitch Pattern for the Front and Back. Pieces are sewn together at the end.

The Cardigan is worked in the Catherine Wheel Stitch Pattern throughout. Both stitch patterns are written out first and referred to within each pattern.

We recommend blocking the Vest and Cardigan at the end.
