Chocolate Rosebud Cardigan is inspired by the rustic look of the beautiful Tiramisu cake yarn by Stenli. The organic elements found in nature, flowering vibe and whimsical feel are the ones that the design seeks for and rely upon for providing the laid-back cozy sense of life when wearing this knitted piece.

The rosebud lace elements on the yoke and sleeves are a reminiscent to the magical Shetland lace, while the leaves at the lower part of the body are gentle nod to the fashionable Japanese knitting style.

The construction of the cardigan is top down, with 8-10 cm /3.5-4” intended ease. The neck elevation, worked in short rows, provides for better fit. Further the round yoke features some simple lace elements, leaving the visual out-turn mainly to the “sprinkled” yarn and its muline effect. After dividing the sleeves, the body is worked straight with a slightly more elaborated lace pattern at the lower part. The sleeves are worked continuously down to the cuff, with a little lace embellishment right before the rib.

The pattern is suitable for adventurous/advanced beginners and/or intermediate knitters.
