Embrae

Discover the elegance of the Embrae fitted cardigan, a beautiful piece that combines a delicate lace collar with exquisite craftsmanship, reminiscent of a gentle floral embrace. This stylish cardigan features a charming lacy leaf pattern that gracefully adorns the sleeves and back, adding a touch of sophistication to your knitwear collection. The intricate lattice design at the center of the lace pattern seamlessly extends to the sides, enveloping the collar with an enchanting finish. Versatility is key, as the collar can be worn flat, overlapping, pinned together, or elegantly folded for different styling options.

Notes: This gorgeous cardigan is constructed from knitted pieces that are skillfully seamed together, creating a polished look. The pattern includes two repeats on the back and a single repeat on each sleeve, ensuring a balanced appearance throughout. Furthermore, the collar is knitted simultaneously with each front piece, streamlining the knitting process and enhancing the garment's overall design.

Gauge: For perfect results, aim for a leaf pattern gauge of 36 stitches measuring 15 cm/6" across after blocking. Additionally, you will find that 24 stitches and 32 rows in Stockinette stitch create a 10 cm/4" square after blocking, while 22 stitches in the Garland pattern measure 10.5 cm/4.25" across once blocked. Ensure you achieve the correct gauge for optimum fit and texture.
