Hergest Ridge Cardi
This knitting pattern features a beautifully crafted design where the sleeves and body are knitted separately up to the underarms. At this point, they are seamlessly joined together to create a stunning yoke. The yoke is expertly shaped with set-in sleeve shaping, which involves gently decreasing the armholes on the body first, before moving on to decrease the sleeve cap stitches for a tailored fit. To ensure a polished finish, the tops of the sleeve caps are completed with a series of short rows, enhancing the shaping and comfort of the garment. Once the yoke is formed, the shoulders are skillfully joined using the three-needle cast-off method, which provides a sturdy and neat finish.
To add the final touches, stitches are meticulously picked up and knitted for both the neckband and the button bands, giving your project a professional appearance. This technique not only enhances the overall aesthetics but also ensures a functional and comfortable wear. Perfect for knitters looking to create a versatile and stylish piece, this pattern will guide you through each step, ensuring that your finished garment is both beautifully crafted and uniquely yours. Explore this pattern today and elevate your knitting skills while creating a masterpiece that’s sure to impress!
