Barnsdall Cardi

Introducing the gorgeous **Barnsdall Cardi**, the Gradient garment you've been dreaming of! With its solid stripes enhancing automatic color transitions, this stunning piece is designed to turn heads. Whether you're a color connoisseur or a casual crafter, this cardigan satisfies even the most discerning fashionistas, featuring a pattern that seamlessly matches Gradient's mesmerizing color changes across the body and both sleeves, resulting in a flawless ombre effect.

This beautiful cardigan is expertly knit from the top down, allowing you to easily pick up stitches along the entire inside edge to create a sophisticated collar and button band. The result is a polished look that you'll love to wear or gift to a fellow knitting enthusiast.

To ensure that you achieve the perfect color transitions, the yarn requirements are based on using separate Gradient cakes for the body and each sleeve. For those opting for a solid color (C1), you will need a total of 150g for sizes XS to L, and 200g to 250g for sizes XL and XXL. Be sure to stock up on extra yarn to avoid any color mismatch!

This detailed pattern includes both charts and written instructions, catering to knitters of all skill levels to ensure a pleasurable crafting experience.

**Important Update (added Dec. 7, 2017):** To achieve a perfect match of color changes in the sleeves to that of the body, you may need to "skip ahead" in the yarn. Keep in mind that this technique can vary for each colorway, which might necessitate additional yarn. Be sure to check your color transitions carefully to make your Barnsdall Cardi truly unique!
