Red Berry Cardigan

This cardigan is knit with twisted knit stitches in most part of the back and throughout the sleeves. A bit tricky on wrong side rows, but easy in sleeves which are knitted in the round. Construction is top down raglan with a bit of modifications in shoulders.

Cardigan is completely seamless. Thanks to a lot of ribbing used and cables it is really stretchy and would fit a child for a long time, several seasons for sure. In the pictures it is modelled by almost 3 year old and nearly 5 year old. Fits well both just have to adjust sleeve length.

Used Bendigo Woolen Mills 100% wool Classic yarn, shade Red Berry, a bit less than 2 balls. I start to like Classic yarn despite it is crepe not plied construction I prefer. It is soft yet durable and machine washable. Good for kids garments.

  3. Perfekti! tagad atliek tikai uzrakstīt aprakstu un ielikt Ravelry. Noteikti būtu piekrišana!
    Klau, otra lieta, vai tu lūdzu varētu nomainīt komentāru konfigurāciju uz to, kur var rakstīt jebkurš? Citādi es nevaru ielogoties ar savu nosacīti jauno un pašreizējo blogu, bet gan ar veco. Lai nu kā, man ļoti patīk tavs blogs un komentārus vienalga turpināšu rakstīt. =)
