About the pattern
Spring Vibes Cardi is a chunky, light, airy and quick-knit cardigan that is perfect to throw over any outfit on nice spring days or late summer evenings. The jacket is worked top-down, back and forth in stockinette stitch. First, the upper part of the back piece is worked, then stitches are picked up along the shoulder seams. The two shoulders are worked separately with increases, before they are joined under the sleeves and the body is worked back and forth as one piece. Stitches for the sleeves are picked up and worked in stockinette stitch before the ribbing. Finally, stitches are picked up along the edges and bound off with an i-cord.

The jacket has a positive ease of approx. 15–25 cm. This means you measure your bust circumference and add approx. 15–25 cm to find the correct size. If, for example, your bust measurement is 87 cm, you can knit size XXS/XS with a positive ease of 15 cm, or S/M for an extra oversized jacket with 25 cm positive ease. Trude’s jacket has a positive ease of approx. 24 cm. Note that the stated yarn amount applies to the given length knitted in 1 color. If you wish to knit the jacket longer, you should calculate extra yarn for this.
