Cosy textured cropped cardigan.

The Velvety cardigan was designed with a slouchy, modern silhouette in mind. The roomy square sleeve, dropped back shoulders and boxy body provide a casual style.
The cardigan is knitted in an easy yet beautiful texture that creates a fluffy and airy structure to the garment. Velvety is knitted bottom-up. Sleeves are picked up along the armhole and worked in the round, with some final decreases for a more balloon effect. Cuff, neck and body ribbing are worked
in a twisted rib. The model in the picture is 169 cm / 5 ́75” tall and wears a Size 2.

LEVEL
Beginner (1/3)

YARN
12 (13, 14, 15, 15) (16, 17, 18) skeins of Lang yarns Regina. (50 g = 175 m / 191 yds) (50% cotton,
24% alpaca, 20% silk and 6% wool).
The cardigan is knitted by holding two strands of yarn together.
If you want to achieve the marbled effect, use 6 (6, 7, 7, 7) (8, 8, 9) skeins of each colour.
For the sample, we used the colourways ”04” and “94”.
