Introducing our elegant long-sleeved cardigan pattern featuring a graceful cable and seed stitch design. This beautifully crafted cardigan showcases intricate back and waist shaping, accentuated seams, and twisted stitches that highlight the stunning cabling throughout the garment.
**Construction Details**: The cardigan is meticulously constructed by knitting the sweater fronts, back, and sleeves flat from the bottom up with traditional seams. The design features a lovely garter border that is seamlessly integrated into the fronts. The neckline is elegantly mitered at the center, worked continuously with the neckline, and the front bands are then joined at the back neck for a polished finish. To enhance the fit, shoulder shaping is achieved using short rows, and the sleeves are thoughtfully set in for a tailored look.
The sample shown is knitted in size 40 on a 36" dress form, allowing for 4" of ease for a comfortable fit.
**Gauge Information**: To ensure your cardigan turns out as expected, achieve a gauge of 18 stitches and 28 rows per 4" in Seed Stitch using the larger needles specified in the pattern.
**Skills Required**: This knitting pattern will help you refine your skills, including reading cable charts, executing short rows (with detailed explanations), and performing a cable cast-on specifically for buttonholes.
**What’s Included**: This comprehensive pattern includes not only written instructions but also detailed cable charts, schematics for visual guidance, and a glossary to help clarify any knitting terminology.
