Hjorki hooded cardigan

Introducing our Unisex Fair Isle Zipped Cardigan, a stylish and cozy addition to your knitting repertoire. This beautifully crafted cardigan is available in three sizes and features two convenient front pockets and a shaped hood, making it a versatile piece for anyone seeking comfort and fashion. Crafted from undyed Shetland Supreme Jumper weight yarn, this cardigan not only looks great but is also made with high-quality materials.

The accompanying photographs showcase size 2, providing a clear visual reference for your project. This Fair Isle cardigan is designed with an innovative construction method, allowing for seamless knitting. Most of the garment, including the hood, is knitted in the round, ensuring a neat and professional finish with no seams to worry about. The traditional design highlights straight sides, while the sleeves are cleverly knitted from the top down to enhance fit and ease of use.

One of the unique features of this pattern is that the hood is knitted first, washed, and blocked. This initial step not only allows the knitter to familiarize themselves with the captivating colour sequence but also ensures that the tension is correct. Plus, it offers an excellent opportunity to practice all the essential techniques needed to successfully complete the entire garment.

With the Freedom of Creativity in mind, only two colours are used in each round, simplifying the colourwork process while still resulting in a stunning Fair Isle effect. Should you wish to adjust the size, we recommend using thicker needles for a looser fit. Whether you're an experienced knitter or just starting, our Unisex Fair Isle Zipped Cardigan pattern is both engaging and rewarding, providing a wonderful project to keep you busy and warm during the cooler months.
