KNITTING PATTERN -- Azura Cardigan - P240

$8.80

This Cardigan is worked, top down to underarm, sleeve stitches are placed on st holder, and the body is worked to end. The sleeves are then worked in the round. There is also a version to work the sleeves flat, on straight needles. The entire cardigan can also be knitted on straight needles for those who don’t like to work with circulars. The cardigan is knitted in garter stitch with rib bands and a simple but effective pattern adorns the hemline. The instructions for this pattern are written out in full. The inspiration for the trim on this cardigan came from some cute little Australian gum nuts I had collected on one of my many nature walks.
