Imatra

**Now available as a single PDF pattern!** For her *Imatra* pattern (named after a city in eastern Finland), Fiona Alice wanted to design a piece for Finland’s warmer seasons: suited to late summer evenings, ferry rides and picnics in the sun. This cardigan is knitted in pieces and features 4 × 2 ribbing and stockinette stitch. The separate pieces allow the knitter the freedom of choosing how they would like to colour-block their own cardigan. The blend of cotton and wool is perfect for a summer knit.
