About this pattern
Knitted as one piece, this sleeveless cardigan is worked in intarsia to construct colour blocked sections with a mixture or rib combinations, creating an easy to wear and layerable piece.

This is a seamless garment knitted as one panel using the intarsia method to colour block sections. Garment is worked straight, starting at the bottom, with no shaping until you reach the arm hole and neck line. Shoulder stitches are left on stitch holders and joined together using ‘kitchener’ stitch at the end. Stitches are picked up along the front halves and worked in 1x1 rib to create band edging. Then neckline stitches are picked up and also worked in 1x1 rib. Button hole is optional at neckline for extra fastening.

It is an English (UK) written pattern, including a measurement diagram and graph.
