Marina is, so to speak, the little sister of my successful “Stina” pattern: a must have for all those who love cable patterns. Different stitch patterns, simplified knitting instructions and a wonderfully light new wool yarn make this cardigan a real favorite in winter.

The cardigan is worked in one piece, bottom up. The easy-to-knit structure pattern is a perfect frame of the various cable patterns on the front and back. The cardigan has raglan sleeves, a slight V-neckline and a saddle shoulder - everything is knitted in one piece, nothing has to be sewn on. It is worn open, so there are no buttonholes. Although the cardigan looks elaborate, the instructions are also suitable for advanced beginners.
