NOTES

The cardigan is knitted in one piece from the top down, in

reverse st st. Short-row shaping is worked on the back yoke

and front curve shaping is worked at the same time as the

raglan increases and then continues as the body is worked.

The trim for the front opening is picked up and worked along

the curved edge afterwards. A short row technique for this

pattern is explained on page 13. Schematics and

abbreviations are located on pages 9, 10 and 12.

FRONT CURVE SHAPING

When piece measures 2.75(3, 3.5, 3.5, 3.5, 3.5)” [7 (8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9) cm] from

AND AT THE SAME TIME work the first decrease row:

Tip for working the Front Curve Shaping at the same time as working the

Yoke:

When working the Front Curve decreases, place a row marker near the

beginning of each decrease row and count rows from the marker to find

the next decrease row.

Work Decrease Row again on the following rows:

• Every 12 th row 2 times;

• Every 6 th row 3 times;

• Every 4 th row 7 times;

• Then every alt row 13 times.

Work 1 WS row.

Continue Front Curve Shaping:

• BO 2 sts at the beginning of next 14(14, 16, 16, 16, 16, 16) rows;

• BO 3 sts at the beginning of next 8 (6, 8, 8, 8, 8, 8) rows;

• BO 4 (4, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6) sts at the beginning of next 2 (4, 6, 4, 4, 4, 4)

rows;
