Pinstripe Cardigan

DESCRIPTION The Pinstripe Cardigan is a classic ribbed cardigan with a modern aesthetic. It has an oversized, relaxed silhouette, that feels cozy yet refined. The ribbed v-neckline, cuffs and hem give it classic structure, while carefully placed lines add elevated details. The cardigan is worked top down in 5x1 ribbing starting with the neck at the back. First, the upper back is worked, then stitches are picked up to work separately on the right front and then on the left front, until the three parts will be joined to work back and forth. For the sleeves stitches are picked up along the armholes and finished with 1x1 ribbing. The buttonband is a tight 1x1 ribbing worked all along the front edge.
