Notes

Love the asymetric style of this cardigan, but did a few mods to get the look and fit I want.

  • Started with the stitch counts for size 36, but did 4 additional raglan increases (stitch count: 374)
  • Cast on 13 sts for each under arm. I’m working the middle stitch of each underarm in reverse stockinette to create a faux seam and provide a bit more visual structure.
  • Knit 20 rows before beginning waist shaping decreases.
  • Skipped the basketweave pattern on the sleeves and just did garter stitch cuffs.

This turned out really well! I love the colour, and of course the yarn feels like heaven against the skin.
