Irpa

Introducing the Irpa Cardigan, a versatile and stylish addition to your wardrobe, named after the Norse word for "dark brown." This long, oversized cardigan features a flattering v-neck design with gentle waist shaping, making it a cozy yet chic choice for layering. The stunning pine cable pattern adorns the center back, while a subtle touch of design with a single pattern repeat graces the fronts and sleeves. Crafted with a wide rib, this cardigan is the perfect casual jacket to pair with the Sigyn dress, making it a go-to option for chilly days.

Yarn Information: The Irpa Cardigan is crafted from Hillesvåg Ullvarefabrikk’s Tinde Pelsull, which boasts 100% pelt wool and a generous length of 260 meters per 100 grams. Our sample hoodie is knitted in a beautiful Light Brown shade (2102) and requires 7 (7, 8, 8, 9) skeins, equating to a total yarn length of 1638 (1820, 2002, 2184, 2366) meters.

Gauge Details: Achieve the perfect fit with a gauge of 21 stitches and 30 rows in stockinette stitch using a 3.5 mm/US 4 needle. After blocking, this gauge measures a square of 10 cm, ensuring that your project turns out just right.

Knitting Notes: This elegant cardigan is knitted in separate pieces and then seamed together for a polished finish. When forming the v-neck, the decreases begin at the cardigan edge; they then transition to the opposite side of the cable to allow the beautiful cable details to extend seamlessly to the shoulder. This thoughtful construction adds to the sophisticated look of the Irpa Cardigan.
