#332 Olivia Cardigan
Delicate lace graces the upper front and back of this pretty little cardigan, a closet classic reimagined in a cropped length and rich shade of pink.
Angled lace, dropped shoulders with Garter stitch detailing, folded over ribbed collar, and gently tapered sleeves complete the well thought out detailing of this cardigan.
The cardigan is knit in pieces, from the bottom up. The lace is introduced in panels that are added after each 12-row repeat is completed. Short rows shape the shoulders before a Garter stitch finish.
The 3-needle bind off method joins the shoulders. Sleeves are then picked up and knit down with decreases to taper towards the wrist, ending with a ribbed cuff. Sides and sleeves are then seamed. Lastly, the ribbed collar and front button bands are picked up and knit to finish.
Shown here in Garnstudio DROPS Alpaca Dark Pink, a very soft, sport-weight alpaca yarn. Suggested substitutes listed.
Lace is charted and written.
