CLASS: PRESSED FLOWERS CARDIGAN (KNIT) - 5 Session Class
An easy to wear relaxed v-neck cardigan with an allover mosaic pattern. Shown with 6” of positive ease but choose what ever ease suits you. Want it longer? Just keep working the body until its your desired length before the underarm (and be sure to purchase additional yarn).
The body is worked in one piece to the underarm. Fronts and back are divided and worked separately to the shoulders. Shoulders are bound off and sewn. The sleeves are picked up and worked down in the round.
THE STITCH PATTERN IS CHARTED.
Please purchase the pattern on Ravelry $7.00 here. If you need help with this we can give you a hand at the shop. We recommend Malabrigo Arroyo but you can use any sport weight yarn that gives you gauge.
IMPORTANT: If you haven't yet purchased your yarn please come into the shop as soon as possible to select your yarn and colors. That will give us time to order it for you. See below for yardage requirements.
FINISHED MEASUREMENTS
Bust – (37, 42, 47, 53) (58, 63, 69, 74)“ - This measurement includes ease
Length – (20, 20 ½, 21, 21 ½) (22, 22 ½, 23, 23 ½)” down center back
YARN
Sport weight yarn, approximately (900, 1000, 1100, 1200) (1300, 1400, 1500, 1600) yards Main Color (MC), and (550, 700, 800, 900) (1000, 1100, 1200, 1300) yards Contrast Color (CC). If you want to make the cardigan longer please be sure to purchase extra yarn.
Yarn amounts are estimates. Total yardage used will depend on the yarn you use, your gauge, and any modifications you may make. If using a sticky, bouncy yarn like an untreated wool choose a fingering, jumper or sport weight. If using a super wash or otherwise smooth, slippery yarn chose a sport or DK.
For best results wash and block your swatch exactly the way you plan to wash your finished sweater. The sweater shown has been washed with a gentle wool wash and gently smoothed into shape to dry flat.
