Puckers Be Gone

Neckline and one shoulder of circular yoke cardigan with cabled motif rounding around shoulders.

Horizontal cable motif with puckers extending above and below the cables.

The Tangled Yoke Cardigan isn’t forgotten. I wet blocked it to try to get rid of the puckering around the cabled area on the yoke. I really stretched out the cabled area and the puckering isn’t too bad. I think it will be fine now—especially when you compare it to the pre-blocked photo.

I finished the front bands and they are lying nice and straight. I’m on the home stretch! I want to wear this sweater!

  1. I love this sweater – it is in my queue. So I’m anxious to know how to avoid puckering. What yarn did you use on this one? I love the Felted Tweed of the pattern, but it isn’t readily available. I think it is being/has been discontinued. There is a lovely Alpaca in the Boutique de Laine in Victoria that I am considering…
