> Use code **30DINORAH** for 30% off > until Monday 19 at midnight. The Dinorah Cardigan is worked from the top down. It features saddle shoulders, a polo collar, button-down cuffs, and an (optional) patch pocket. Construction starts with the two saddles, and then the back and fronts are shaped with short rows and increases. The body is worked flat once the pieces are joined at the underarms. Sleeves are worked in the round, switching to flat knitting for plackets and cuffs. The collar consists of a double knitted section and a polo collar section with increases to maintain the ribbing pattern. The pattern includes links to video tutorials for all new techniques. **Sizes** XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL **Bust circumference:** 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 cm 31.5-33.5 (33.5-35.5) 35.5-37 (37.5-39.5) 39.5-43.2 (43.2-47.2) 47.2-51.2’’ The cardigan has a positive ease of approx. 15-25 cm/ 5.9-9.8" **Measurements (of finished garment):** Bust circumference: 100 (108) 114 (120) 128 (136) 144 cm/ 39.4 (42.5) 44.9 (47.2) 50.4 (53.5) 56.7" Length (measured from center back): 48 (50) 52 (52) 52 (52) 52 cm/ 18.9 (19.7) 20.5 (20.5) 20.5 (20.5) 20.5" Sleeve length (measured from underarm): 40 (40) 41 (42) 41 (38) 40 cm/ 15.8 (15.8) 16.1 (16.5) 16.1 (15) 15.8" **Gauge** 26 sts x 34 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4 x 4’’ in Stockinette Stitch, worked flat on 4.00 mm (US 6) needles, after blocking. **Yarn** Sport weight - 250 mts/273 yds per 100g skein 5 (6) 6 (7) 7 (8) 8 skeins Approx. 1320 (1425) 1500 (1575) 1680 (1785) 1890 mts/ 1444 (1558) 1640 (1722) 1837 (1952) 2067 yds Suggested: Sami by Manos del Uruguay (100% Superwash Merino Wool) **Recommended needles** 4.00 mm (US 6) circular needles for body and sleeves *3.5 mm (US 4) circular needles for hem, cuffs and collar 3.00 mm (US 2.5) circular needles for double knitted edge at collar *An optional extra set can be useful for cuff plackets.
