Bay Cardigan is a collaboration with Eylul Yarns (LYS in Osaka) and Indonesian indie dyer Papiput. The design was first released exclusively through Eylul Yarns in November 2019. From February 2020, it is also available in my Ravelry Store.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This cardigan is worked top-down with twisted ribs on the back, cables along the sleeves and a wide neck and front band. You will find subtle details that perhaps no one will notice but you as the knitter know, such as raglan lines joining at the underarm to form twisted cable that runs down each side of the body, the same twisted cables repeated in the design on the sleeves, buttonholes integrated in the stitch pattern, shaping for the neck and front band, and a change in stitch pattern as the front band goes behind your neck so that you can match the ribbing with the rib lines on the back.

As the button holes are integrated in the stitch pattern of the front band, you can decide if you would like to wear your cardigan with or without buttons after you have completed it and tried it on. Simply sew buttons opposite the buttonholes if you wish.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

トップダウン式に編むカーディガン。後ろ身頃にねじりゴム編み、袖には縄編み模様が入り、幅広の襟と前立てが付いています。カーディガンには繊細なディテールが満載。ラグランラインの目が脇の下で交差して、両脇を飾る交差模様となったり、同じ模様が袖のデザインに使用されていたり、ボタンホールが模様の一部だったり、前立てと襟の幅が違ったり、前立てと異なる後ろ襟の模様が後ろ身頃のゴム編みのラインとつながるようになっていたり……。誰も気づかないかもしれませんが、ニッターのあなただけが知っているディテールです。
ボタンホールは前立ての模様の一部なので、カーディガンを編み終え、試着をしてからボタンで留めて着るかどうかを決めることができます。ボタンをつける場合はボタンホール位置に合わせてボタンを縫い付けて下さい。
