Flying Feathers Cardigan by Hinterm Stein
What is Being Made
The Flying Feathers is a women's cardigan designed by independent designer Hinterm Stein, available in sizes XS through XXL with finished bust measurements ranging from 83cm to 127cm (33" to 51"). This garment features a distinctive A-line silhouette created by the flying feathers pattern, offering a flattering and elegant shape. The cardigan is designed to be worn with 5cm (2") of positive ease for comfortable, relaxed fit.
Construction Method and Design Features
This cardigan is worked from the top down in a seamless construction, eliminating the need for seaming and making it an accessible project for less experienced knitters despite its intermediate difficulty rating. The pattern provides flexibility in shaping, allowing knitters to choose between a wide A-line or slight A-line option, and to customize the body length to personal preference. The front band can be worked with buttons or left plain according to individual preference, offering versatility in the finished design.
Stitches and Techniques
The flying feathers pattern forms the visual centerpiece of this design, creating the characteristic A-line shaping at the back of the cardigan. This stitch pattern is worked seamlessly as part of the top-down construction method. The pattern includes schematic diagrams and detailed measurements provided on page 2 to guide proper sizing and fit.
Yarn and Materials
The Flying Feathers cardigan accommodates yarn weights in the heavy fingering or sport weight category, with a gauge suitable for yarns yielding approximately 130-165 meters per 50 grams. The sample cardigan was knitted using DROPS Alpaca at 165m/50g in size M with the wide A-line and long body version. Estimated yardage requirements range from approximately 1050 meters (1155 yards) for the smallest size XS to 1595 meters (1755 yards) for the largest size XXL, with an additional 50-60 meters (55-65 yards) recommended as a safety margin. Knitters should calculate yardage needs based on their chosen size and customizations.
