This simple yet elegant cardigan is a longline cardigan which is knitted flat from top to bottom using raglan increases. It has a positive ease of approximately 9-10 cm on both sides of the bust/body. You can also adjust the width of the body to your liking by knitting less/more raglan increases or adding less/more casted sts underarm. Amount of the yarn will differ if adjustments are made. This cardigan is meant to be slightly oversized.
