Introducing the Kore Cardi, a striking open-front cardigan named after Persephone, the ancient Greek goddess of spring and rebirth. Often referred to as Kore, this garment embodies elegance and youth, reminiscent of the sculptural representations of young females adorned with beautifully braided hair. The Kore Cardi showcases an exquisite braided cable pattern along its front bands, adding a touch of sophistication to your wardrobe. The unique hemline is crafted with a playful spirit, designed to gently drape when worn open, creating a stunning silhouette. This cardigan is meant to be styled with deeply overlapping sides, reminiscent of a traditional kimono, making it perfect for layering year-round.

The construction of this versatile cardigan involves working three main pieces: the Back, Right Front, and Left Front. Each piece is knitted from the bottom up and effortlessly seamed together for a professional finish. To complete this fashionable piece, the sleeves are knitted in the round from the top down, featuring smart short-row shaping in the shoulder cap for an impeccable fit.

Important Correction to Stitch Count for M Size in the Armhole Shaping section of the BACK (p2) for the English Version:
Please note that the text should read: BO 4 (5, 6, 7, 9) sts at the beginning of the next 2 rows. {69 (71, 77, 87, 91) sts on needle}
