Cardigan/Knitted Cardigan Gita - Sizes 36 to 42 One Size


(To purchase/download, please click the image)
Note: the light blue scarf with headband comes from this crochet pattern (click me)

A knitted lightweight piece for every season – whether worn over or under – simple and with an eye-catching collar area. Both patterns used are absolutely easy (only knit and purl stitches). The collar design requires a little attention. Unlike the “Margit” model, the sleeves are knitted with a sleeve cap. The length is variable.

The illustrated pattern with stitch- and row-by-row instructions is based on a gauge of approx. 14.5 sts = approx. 10 cm with size 6.0 knitting needles.

Because of the cardigan’s relaxed shape and stretchiness, one stitch more or less is not that crucial. So it’s no problem if 14 or 15 sts = approx. 10 cm. For larger gauge differences, please choose a larger or smaller knitting needle size. The pattern does not include a knitting tutorial, but it does include relevant link tips.

Difficulty level: intermediate (because of the collar shaping)

We need
225 g KidSilk by Austermann, color 40 emerald, 75% kid mohair, 25% silk, details according to the ball band: needles 3–4, 18 sts x 26 rows = 10 cm x 10 cm, hand wash, 25 g – 225 m yardage; with this material, it is knitted with a double strand.

Used here: size 6.0 knitting needles, pins, measuring tape, yarn needle for weaving in ends, scissors, stitch marker, if needed, row counter.
