VILLA WRAP is a soft cardigan with a distinctive texture,
formed by working seed stitch and vertical lines formed with
knit stitches.

The cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down and has
no finishing work. First the back yoke is worked, then stitches
are picked up and knitted along the shoulders for the right and
left front yoke. The two front yokes and the back are joined at
the bottom of the armholes, and the body is worked back and
forth across all the stitches. After this, stitches are picked up and
knitted for the cardigan’s front edges and collar, which is made
in one piece and in twisted ribs – a beautiful finishing detail that
gives this design its characteristic look. At the end, stitches are
picked up and knitted along the armholes for the sleeves, which
are worked in the round.

How much positive ease you like in your clothes varies from
person to person. It can be a good idea to measure some of your
favorite cardigans to help you choose the perfect size for you.
My VILLA WRAP has 37 cm of positive ease, as I like the
oversized look for my body silhouette, but I would not hesitate
to go down to 20 cm of positive ease, depending on your figure
and fit preferences.

If you would like a different length than the one listed for your
size, you can follow the length for one of the other sizes.
Example:
If you’re working the cardigan in size 2 but would like the
finished length to be 59 cm as it is for size 4, you’ll work the
body until it measures 56 cm, and then work the rib, as
described for size 4. Afterwards, when you go to work the front
edge, you follow the instructions for size 4, as the number of
stitches needed for the front edge is related to the length of the
body.
