DESCRIPTION
The JONA Cardigan is an oversize cardigan, which is worked top down with increases along the knitted pieces. You start working the first side of the neckband and front piece and shape the drop down shoulders by working short rows.
The deep V-neck is shaped by increases, the slanted sleeves by decreases, which are first worked to the armhole openings.
You then pick up stitches for the second front piece as well as the back piece, which are worked to the armhole openings, too. You then place all tree pieces on the same needle to finish the body.
The sleeve stitches are picked up around the armhole openings and worked in round. Due to the top down technique, the cardigan’s length can be easily adjusted to personal measurements.
All cuffs and the belt are worked with slipped stitches.
The instruction includes a detailed model sketch with all necessary measurements, a blank sketch for notes and alternative front bands.
