Pattern Description from Vogue Knitting, Winter 2009/10: “The elasticity of knit 2, purl 2 ribbing allows Karola Gottwald’s formfitting cardigan to mold to your body. Easy short-row shaping at the front edge and around the collar creates the pretty ruffled edges. The silver shade of ‘Samina’ from Gedifra/Westminster Fibers adds shimmer.”“

“Standard-fitting, ribbed cardigan.”
