This is a generous oversize cardigan with a low v-neck and a hi-low split hem.

It starts with an i-cord, then neck stitches are picked up from it and the cardigan is knitted top-down. Fronts and back are knitted simultaneously, there is no seaming involved.

Sleeves are picked from the arm openings and knitted down. There are subtle reverse details accentuating the shoulders and low v-neck fronts which makes this practically reversible.

The cardigan features contrast color hidden pockets, reverse front bands and shoulders, fake side seams and a broken rib hem detail. There is no closure.

For pockets you’ll need any contrast color fingering weight yarn, about 10g or 45 m / 50 yds.
