April Cardigan

Produktinformation

This knitting pattern from Petite Knit is in Swedish. The pattern is sent in printed format.

The April Cardigan has a V-neckline and is knitted from the top down. The yoke is constructed in such a way that shoulder increases are first knitted on the right and wrong side. Then armhole increases are knitted, and finally a piece with raglan increases is knitted. Simultaneously with this, increases are knitted along the front edges, so that the V-neckline is formed. The sleeves are knitted in the round on double pointed needles or with Magic Loop technology. Finally, stitches are picked up along the front edges, at the shoulders and at the neck, and a button placket is knitted in elastic. Knit a test patch to find the stitch size that gives you the right stitch strength.
