Twiggy Cardigan


This simple raglan cardigan is knit from the top down. Twiggy is designed with negative ease to fit close to the body and minimize bulk. Long roomy sleeves and generous length make this comfortable cardigan one you’ll want to live in. Features include a funnel neck and chunky garter stitch cuffs and hem. This pattern is offered in a wide range of sizes using Jane’s popular Fill-in-the-Blank style format (see page 2 for further details). Super Bulky yarn paired with minimal shaping makes this a very fast knit, perfect for beginners or those new to top-down garment construction. This is a very fun knit and certainly provides the most instant gratification you’ll find from a full sized sweater.
