Cantata
Introducing the “Cantata” Cardigan, a beautifully simple feminine cardigan designed for knitters who appreciate elegance and comfort. This cardigan is crafted using the top-down seamless method with the innovative contiguous technique, featuring two lace weight yarns held together for a stunning finish. The warm combination of merino wool and mohair creates a lightweight yet exceptionally cozy garment, perfect for layering in any season.
The “Cantata” Cardigan adds a lovely touch to both casual outfits and more formal attire, making it a versatile addition to your wardrobe. Whether you're dressing up for an evening out or keeping it casual for a day with friends, this cardigan is the perfect accessory.
This knitting pattern is user-friendly, making it suitable for knitters with some previous experience. The lace pattern used for the cuffs and bottom border is straightforward and presented in a row-by-row format, ensuring ease of understanding. Plus, there’s an option to personalize your cardigan with button(s) for an added touch of charm.
The sample size S1 is designed to fit a 34” bust with about 2” of ease, allowing for a comfortable and stylish fit. If you prefer a more fitted silhouette, you can easily adjust the pattern to match your exact body measurements.
Materials used in the sample include:
- “Walk Collection” Delicate Merino (single ply) in the lovely colour ‘Powder’ (100% Merino Wool, 600m/100g)
- Rowan ‘Kidsilk Haze’ in the elegant colour ‘Pearl’ (70% Mohair / 30% Silk, 209m/25g)
When selecting substitute yarns, be sure to choose options that match the same gauge (22 stitches and 30 rows to 4” or 10cm) and provide a nice drape after blocking. This will ensure that your finished project looks just as beautiful as intended.
