Product Description
The Sun Shower cardigan is inspired by the unpredictable sunshine, clouds, and showers that herald the arrival of warmer weather. It’s designed light-weight, loose-fitting and airy for a casual, “ready for summer” feel. Special features include French lace “shower” vignettes that look like cloud bursts alternated with “rain” ribbing, and an optional fade gradient to suggest sunshine beyond the rain.
The cardigan is worked bottom up to preserve correct directionality of the “shower” lace motif. The body is knit flat, separated at underarms, then fronts and back worked separately. Back shoulders are shaped with short rows. Sleeves are knit circular and attached with three-needle bind-off technique (WS) and mattress stitch (RS).
The cardigan is worn open, with positive ease of 20-46 cm/8-18 ins at bust. Body and sleeve lengths are adjustable. The sample garment is shown in size 2, worn with 36 cm/14” of positive ease.
Knitting gauge: 28 sts x 36 rows on 3.0 mm (US 2.5) needle in st st.
