A TV spot inspired me to make this cardigan, a big hood to snuggle up in should be. Loose and casual it should surround the body. Because of the contrasting color it won’t be boring, neither when knitting nor when wearing it. The original yarn form mYak gives it a nice dense and at the same time soft texture.
This cardigan is knitted seamless from top down. Starting with the hood, all further steps are illustrated with sketches in the instructions.

Please take a look at all the beautiful projects of my test knitters.
