The Sunset Cardigan is a very warm and cozy jacket perfect for in-between seasons. It is designed as a no sew pattern and is worked all in one piece. Only the buttonband needs to be added in the end with a double knit technique. Starting at the upper back, the cardigan is worked top-down, to the armholes. Then both front pieces are added separately by picking up stitches at the shoulders. Once all three parts are worked for the upper body, they are joined to work the lower body in one piece. The sleeves are worked by picking up stitches along the armholes and knitting in the round. Finally, the buttonband is added by picking up stitches along the front edges and working a double-knit technique where the buttonholes are added directly while working the buttonband. Since the cardigan is worked with one strand DK weight yarn - Gepard Garn Woolia in this case – and two strands of mohair, there’s a lot of possibilities for playing around with colour gradients and combinations.
