Level of Difficulty – Beginner to Intermediate
Amazingly easy and quick to knit, this relaxed fit A-Line cardi is worked in one piece from the top down with Katia Air Alpaca. The jacket has raglan shoulders and is worked in stocking stitch with rib bands. The front opening band is picked up and knitted when the body of the garment is finished. There are no seams to sew and the sleeves are designed to be knitted in the round using DPNs or circular needles.
