PRINTED PATTERN ONLY Coorie yourself in the soothing embrace of wool. Drape her over your shoulders, adjust her to your perfect comfort, and secure her snugly. Wrapped in Coorie, you’ll be filled with the tenderness of a cuddle, shielding you from the day’s chill and warming your heart. Coorie embodies the allure of simple stitches, soft woollen yarn, and layered knits. She uses a delightful array of stitches that’ll tempt you to knit a little longer as her pattern flows gracefully and colours emerge to create her simple tartan backdrop. The finishing touch is a pleasing i-cord border, cleverly doubling as buttonholes for securing Coorie in place. To add a personal touch and bring your tartan to life, Coorie invites you to take a moment to hand-stitch into the channels created during your work. Whether you’re a novice or an experienced knitter, Coorie is a captivating project, complete with charts and written instructions.
