Morning Glory Cardigan

This pattern was part of the publication "Tweed - Erika Knight Yarn Collection" and is now available for individual download. **Construction** The seamless cardigan is worked from the top down, back and forth in rows. Increases are worked to shape the front neckline, while raglan increases form the shoulder/yoke section. As soon as the yoke depth is reached, the stitches for the sleeves are put on hold and the body is worked straight to the ribbed hem without shaping. The sleeves are worked in the round, top down to the cuff . For the ribbed button band, stitches are picked up along the front opening. The 2-color pattern is a mixture of basic stitch patterns - stockinette stitch, garter stitch and slip stitches - and is worked over the entire cardigan. The raglan “seam” is accentuated with slip stitches along the increase lines. **Sizes and fit** 1 (2) 3 (4) 5 (6) 7 (8) Recommended ease 15-20 cm/6-8” of positive ease To fit chest 78 (86) 94 (102) 110 (118) 126 (134) cm/30.75 (34) 37 (40) 43.25 (46.5) 49.5 (52.75)” Finished measurements at bust 98 (106) 114 (122) 130 (138) 146 (154) cm / 38.5 (41.75) 45 (48) 51.25 (54.25) 57.5 (60.75)” **Gauge** 17 sts x 36 rows = 10 x 10 cm/4 x 4” worked flat, in main stitch pattern, on larger needles, after blocking. **Notions** Blocking tools, darning needle, removable stitch markers for placing buttonholes, scrap yarn, stitch markers, tape measure **Yarn** Erika Knight Yarns Pure Tweed Shown in colour 4501 Scottish Borders (MC) and 1745 Coldstream Blue (CC).
