Curdach Cardigan

Comfortable, elegant and an instant wardrobe staple! This cardigan combines a beautiful Irish Yarn with fun cables for a comfortable finished piece. You begin with the saddles worked from the centre out from side to side. From here the back is picked up and then the front. Finally you finish the body with gentle A-line shaping in one piece. The sleeves are worked from the top down using short row shaping to form the sleeve cap. > You can find the yarn kit [here][1]. > The pattern has a discount code for > full [video workshop][2] in pattern > also. **SIZES To Fit Actual Bust Circumference Up To:** 30.75 (33.25, 36.5, 39, 41.5, 44, 48, 50.5, 53.75, 56.25, 59.75)” / 78 (84.5, 92.5, 99, 105.5, 112, 122, 128.5, 136.5, 143, 152) cm. *1-2.5" / 2.5 – 6.5 cm of positive ease recommended.* **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS Finished Bust Circumference:** 31.75 (34.25, 37.5, 40, 42.5, 45, 49, 51.5, 54.75, 57.25, 60.75)" / 80.5 (87, 95.5, 101.5, 108, 114.5, 124.5, 131, 139.5, 145.5, 154.5) cm buttoned. *Size 37.5" / 95.5 cm modelled with 2.5"/ 6.5 cm positive ease.* **Length:** 25.75 (26.25, 26.25, 27.25, 27.25, 27.75, 28.25, 28.75, 29.25, 29.75, 30.5)" / 65.5 (66.5, 66.5, 69, 69, 70.5, 72, 73, 74.5, 75.5, 77.5) cm from back of neck. **MATERIALS Yarn** Stolen Stitches ‘Blasta’ (60% Fine Irish Wool, 40% New Zealand Wool; 232 yds / 212 m per 3.6 oz / 100 g); colour: Nadur; 5 (6, 6, 7, 7, 7, 8, 8, 9, 9, 10) skeins **Approximate Yardage:** 1145 (1235, 1319, 1396, 1461, 1585, 1673, 1795, 1931, 2007, 2115) yds / 1046 (1128, 1205, 1275, 1334, 1448, 1529, 1640, 1764, 1834, 1932) m **Needles & Notions** US size 6 / 4 mm circular needle, 32" / 80 cm long (or longer for larger sizes) US size 6 / 4 mm dpns if magic loop not used for sleeves *Always use a needle size that gives you the gauge listed, as every knitter's gauge is unique.* Tapestry needle, cable needle (cn), stitch markers, safety pin or lockable stitch marker, waste yarn, stitch holders or spare needle, 8 buttons approx. 0.75" /22 mm diam. **GAUGE** 19 sts and 28 rows = 4" / 10 cm in St St blocked 21 sts and 29 rows = 4" / 10 cm in Ribbing blocked Cable A & D: 1.25” / 3 cm wide across 10 sts Cable B: 1.25” / 3 cm wide across 8 sts Cable C: 3.75” / 9.5 cm wide across 26 sts Cable E & F: 0.75”/ 2 cm wide across 4 sts 1/1 RC & 1/1 LC: 0.25”/ 0.5 cm wide across 2 sts [1]: https://stolenstitches.com/collections/celtic-knit-club-kits/products/curdach-cardigan-yarn-kit [2]: https://stolen-stitches.teachable.com/p/curdach-cardigan/
