Ronin Pattern Download
Designed by Julie Hoover, Ronin is a shawl collared cardigan with a drapey fit. Worked bottom up and flat in pieces, this pattern features two-colored stripes that vary in size. Julie’s new version of Ronin uses our Santolina, a lovely mix of 70% organically grown cotton, 20% rayon from bamboo, and 10% hemp. It has a beautiful shine and creates a smooth yet durable fabric that is both machine wash- and dryable. Santolina has almost two dozen heathered colors to choose from for endless striping possibilities!
