Segue Cardigan

Segue cardigan is worked flat in one piece top down, starting with a provisional cast on. After working short rows for the shoulder shaping, the back piece is worked to the underarms; front pieces are worked and then the rest of the body is done in one piece. Both colours are used at the same time, one for the right side and one for left, meeting at the middle of the back, using the intarsia technique. From time to time, one colour is used for the whole piece, alternating and creating the stripes.

Sleeve stitches are picked up and worked in the round, with stripes mirroring the main body pattern, before ending with a rolled cuff.
