Yarn kit for Becky, a lovely cardigan or jacket, with waffle knit and beautiful cable edges and collar.
Becky is made in Önling No 1, our own soft and sustainable merino wool and angora yarn, combined with a light Silk Mohair. The silk mohair is either from Mohair by Canard or Önling, depending on the colour. This gives a warm and soft cardigan that is knitted at a large needle size.
Originally Becky is knitted in a combination of Isager Highland Silk, Isager Alpaca 2 and Isager Spinni, This gives a warm and soft cardigan, in melange nuances. See this version and related products below.

The price of the yarn kit is calculated based on the amount of yarn included, which is the amount we have used to knit the design according to the above measurements.

All designs have been thoroughly calculated and tested.
ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
