OVERVIEW:
Language - English
Level - confident beginner/intermediate level. Perfect also as an introduction to intarsia knitting!
Techniques Used- The techniques you will need to know are knit, purl, 1x1 rib, knit 2 together, ssk, cast on, cast off and yarn over. The cardigan is knit up in 5 panels and is made up of 2 front panels, 1 back panel and 2 sleeves. All seamed together and then completed with a neckline that is knit by picking up stitches along the edge of the cardigan body. The sleeve cuffs are made extra long for you to be able to roll them up and you can make adjustments to the length/width of the body to fit your shape.
(if you are a relative beginner looking for a challenge, photos are included throughout and video links are included at the very end of the pattern)
