Pattern construction :

  • the cardigan is worked bottom up in separate pieces.
  • side seams and shoulder seams are closed.
  • both sleeves are worked on to cardigan in rounds.
  • finish with ribbed edgings and cuffs.

Yarn : sportweight yarn, 1100 (1210, 1350, 1520, 1700, 1950, 2230)m or 1203 (1323, 1476, 1662, 1859, 2133, 2439)yds.

Sample made with :
Durable Mohair, 55 % acrylic & 25 % mohair & 20 % wool, 50g/190m/208yds, colour 2142 Teal, 6 (7, 8, 8/9, 9/10, 11, 12) balls.
(8 entire balls are needed to make size L, 9 entire balls are needed for size XL, therefor I recommend buying an extra ball of yarn to make your gauge swatch or just to be sure you will have enough yarn).
