Windermere Cardigan (English)

£6.95

This pattern is in English.

Windermere Cardigan is a cozy oversized cardigan worked in reverse Half Fisherman’s rib from the top down in a raglan structure.

First the yoke is worked back and forth with raglan increases and initially with short rows to create shape to the neck. The cardigan is then divided for the body and sleeves, and new stitches are cast on for the underarms. The body and sleeves are finished separately. All edges are worked in a half-twisted rib and bound off using the Italian Bind-off technique. A double-knit button band is worked on both sides of the cardigan. Finally, stitches are picked up and knitted in twisted rib along the neck edge and then folded over and secured towards the wrong side.
