Silk Cardigan

Introducing our exquisitely designed fitted cardigan, perfect for knitters who love a delicate touch. This cardigan features flattering side shaping and strategically placed bust darts for an elegantly tailored fit. Adorned with beautiful lace edging, a charming contrast lace collar, and matching cuffs, this garment combines style with texture. The lower edging is crafted first, with stitches picked up to create the body, which is worked flat in one seamless piece, including the button and buttonhole bands extending up to the armholes.

For added detail, the cuffs are knit in a lovely contrast yarn, with sleeve stitches later picked up in the main yarn and worked flat for a refined finish. The collar is knit separately using contrast yarn and is then expertly sewn on to complete the look. This cardigan is not only a fashionable layering piece but also a delightful project for your knitting repertoire.

The original collar and cuffs were designed using the now-discontinued Fyberspates Elegance Lace. However, you can easily substitute it with Fyberspates Scrumptious Lace for a similar luxurious feel.
