**5 for 4** *– if you buy any 5 Åsa Tricosa patterns at the same time you get the least expensive one for free.* **Mayhem Cardigan** debuted as a printed pattern at the Edinburgh Yarn Festival 2017. **This pattern is now also available in the Ziggurat Book** (print & eBook, 2018). *(~am trying but failing to contain utter exuberance~)* > **JOIN OUR friendly and fun [Perpetual KAL][1]! Cast on anytime, prizes > throughout the year(s)** **Mayhem Cardigan** has squishy texture, overlapping fronts, no buttons, and a squarish, almost swingy shape that is easy to wear. This cardigan can look formal or entirely casual with its set-in, tailored, long sleeves. A well-nigh invisible gather at centre back lends that little bit of extra ease. The texture is created with an easy four-row stitch pattern that makes you want to knit just one more row. There is also a hidden (optional) mini pocket. Yay! Like all [Ziggurats][2], **Mayhem** is knitted top down with contiguous sleeve caps, built-in edges, and a built-in not-quite double-knitted coin pocket. **Sizes** 81 (86, 91, 97, 102) \[107, 112, 117, 122, 127\] cm 32 (34, 36, 38, 40) \[42, 44, 46, 48, 50\] inches **Garment Bust Measurement** 88 (92, 100, 104, 110) \[114, 118, 126, 132, 138\] cm 34.75 (36.25, 39.25, 41, 43.25) \[45, 46.5, 49.5, 52, 54.25\] inches **Yarn** Ginger Twist Hand Dyed Masham Mayhem DK, Muddy Sunshine (75% Bluefaced Leicester, 25% Masham, 240 m / 262 yds per 100 g) x 4 (4, 5, 5, 5) \[6, 6, 6, 6, 7\] skeins **Approx yardage** 950 (1000, 1050, 1100, 1150) \[1250, 1250, 1400, 1450, 1500\] m 1000 (1050, 1150, 1200, 1250) \[1300, 1350, 1500, 1550, 1600\] yds **Helpful links to techniques used in the pattern** [Winding Provisional Cast On][3] [M1R/M1L][4] [Crochet Cast On][5] [German Short Rows][6] [Lined hem][7] [Simple pocket][8] *To find out what else is up my knitted sleeve, you may sign up for the occasional Åsa Tricosa Newsletter [here][9].* [1]: https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/asa-tricosa/3897375 [2]: https://www.ravelry.com/bundles/ziggurats [3]: https://asatricosa.com/winding-cast-on/ [4]: https://asatricosa.com/m1r/ [5]: https://asatricosa.com/crochet-cast-on/ [6]: https://asatricosa.com/german-short-rows/ [7]: https://asatricosa.com/lined-hem/ [8]: https://asatricosa.com/simple-pocket/ [9]: https://asatricosa.com/newsletter
