A
knitted lightweight piece for every season – whether worn over or under something – simple, with an eye-catching collar area. Both patterns used are absolutely easy (only knit and purl stitches). The collar design requires a little care, so the difficulty level is: intermediate.
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 casual shape and stretchiness of the cardigan, one stitch more or less is not that decisive. If your gauge differs more significantly, please choose a larger or smaller needle size. The pattern does not include a knitting tutorial, but it does include relevant link tips.
