ABOUT THE PATTERN
A yoked cardigan/sweater with flared, sideways knit body. No patterning facility required, so can be made with any chunky or mid gauge machine. The textured patterning is created using holding position tuck and a 1/1 needle pusher. A little bit of cut and sew is used to create the armhole shaping, full instructions given on how to do this. The pattern uses a 'Double Worm' edging for the cardigan. This can also be used for the sweater, or a plain cast off or roll neck for the neckline. The sleeves can be gathered in as in the examples, or flared as the hem of the body. Only basic skills are needed, being able to use holding position and hooking up stitches from waste yarn. Full instructions and knitting tips are given.
EQUIPMENT
Can be made on any chunky or mid gauge machine. No patterning facility required. The textured detail is created using holding position and a 1/1 needle pusher.
SIZING
Full instructions for chest 22" (age about 2/3) to 46", in 2" increments.
MATERIALS
Any Double Knit gauge yarn able to produce the same stitch tension. Use a light to normal weight DK yarn, a thicker DK would produce a firmer fabric.
