Heaven cardigan
ABOUT THE PATTERN
The “Heaven Cardigan” draws inspiration from the celestial skies and the enchantment of Greek mythology. It is knitted using two strands of mohair to capture this essence, creating a voluminous effect reminiscent of clouds and an ethereal feel.
This cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down, commencing with the back panel, featuring an elegant combination of beads and cables. Upon reaching the desired length and completing the necessary increases, the back is placed on hold, awaiting connection with the fronts that originate from the same back panel, incorporating the same cable pattern. Once the desired length for the fronts is achieved, they are joined with the back, and the knitting continues as one piece.
The pattern continues with the bead motif, concluding the body section with another stunning beading design and lacework. The sleeves are seamlessly integrated using short rows and feature a beaded ribbing to finish.

knitting advice from the testers
If you use a mohair that has more yardage and is thinner, the dragon knitter advises you:
“The beads will weigh down the fabric at the center back due to the lightness of the fabric. So I would recommend using only size 8. If you use a heavier yarn, you can use larger beads. Consider the thickness of your yarn with the size/weight of your beads.”
“You can also hold a lace wool yarn with a lace mohair.”
Purlifcknitter notes:
“As a side note, I wish I had thought to use headpins or straight sewing pins with a large glass head to “preview” bead combinations sooner, as this is easier and faster than knitting them into the swatch.”
She also recommends employing three strands of mohair yarn together, which could be beneficial when using a thinner mohair.
‘Heaven Cardigan’ esta inspirado en los cielos celestiales y el encanto de la mitología griega. Para capturar esta esencia, se teje usando dos hebras de mohair, creando un efecto voluminoso que recuerda a las nubes y una sensación etérea.
Este cárdigan se trabaja sin costuras de arriba hacia abajo, comenzando por la espalda, con una elegante combinación de mostacillas y trenzas. Al alcanzar la longitud deseada y completar los aumentos necesarios, se coloca en espera, a la espera de la únion con los frentes que se originan desde la espalda, incorporando el mismo patrón de trenzas. Una vez alcanzada la longitud deseada para los frentes, se unen al panel posterior y la labor continúa como una sola pieza.
El patrón continúa con el motivo de mostacillas, concluyendo la sección del cuerpo con otro impresionante diseño de mostacillas y encaje. Las mangas se integran sin costuras usando vueltas cortas y presentan un elástico con mostacillas para finalizar.
