Pisces cardigan

This beautiful cardigan pattern is designed for knitters who want to create a stunning garment seamlessly knitted from the top down. The knitting journey begins with delicate lace shoulders, setting the stage for an elegant finish. After completing the lace section, you will skillfully pick up stitches along the shoulder seams to knit the back, which features a charming combination of a lace panel and cozy double moss stitch design up to the armholes. Once the back is complete, you'll put those stitches on hold to focus on each front separately until you reach the armholes. Finally, you’ll join the back and front pieces together, working in unison until the very end, as the ribbed edges are crafted at the same time for a polished look. The sleeves are knitted in the round, with stitches picked up around the armholes for a seamless transition. To top off this gorgeous design, you will finish with a beautifully knitted collar, completing the cardigan by picking up stitches along the shoulders and back.

Bust circumference final measurements: 37½ (41, 45½, 49½)[54¼, 56½, 59¼] inches; 95 (104, 115¾, 125¾)[138, 144, 150¼] cm, providing a comfy fit with a suggested positive ease of 4 to 6 inches; 10 to 15 cm included for added comfort. This versatile cardigan is perfect for layering or as a standalone statement piece in any wardrobe.

With this pattern, you'll not only refine your knitting skills but also create a timeless piece that can be cherished for years to come. Share your completed cardigan on social media and inspire fellow knitters in the community!
