Novemberknits - Shine Cardigan - Paper

Shine Cardigan is a light and airy cardigan that is knitted top down with raglan increases and moss stitch down the sleeves. The body is finished with rib, and the sleeves are finished with stockinette stitch cuffs that are folded double. Finally, stitches are picked up for button bands along the front pieces.

The cardigan should have a positive ease of movement of approx. 10-12 cm. Knit a swatch before you start, so you are sure that the knitting tension is correct. Recommended help videos are listed at the bottom of the pattern.
