Eostre adult cardigan

AboutLight, with airy lace sleeves, and a bit cropped - Eostre is the perfect cardigan for spring and summer strolls in nature. Put it on over your favorite dress or with a long skirt and it will keep you comfortable when the chilly sea breeze comes in during those evening conversations with family and friends by the fire. Make another one for your daughter for the matching daughter-mother set.

ConstructionThe cardigan is knitted top-down, starting from the neckline. A tubular cast-on gives it a nice finished look and the broken rib on the neckline, cuffs, and button bands look gentle. Raglan increases are worked on the front and back, while increases on the sleeves are mainly part of the lace pattern. The body is worked in plain stockinette, while the sleeves have an easy-to-remember, repetitive lace pattern throughout. The cardigan has a classic fit with up to 10.5 cm / 4¼ in positive ease.
