Recommended circular needle size 10 mm / US 15

9 stitch markers

Gauge: 10 stitches and 14 rows in stockinette stitch on size 10 mm / US 15 needles = 4 x 4 inches (10 x 10 cm)

Procedure:
The cardigan is knitted back and forth, from the top down in one piece. An i-cord is worked, into which stitches are picked up. The yoke is first knitted with increases in the center front and raglan increases on the right side, and then with only raglan increases on the right side. Then the work is divided, and the sleeves and body are finished separately. The length can be easily adjusted to be shorter or longer as desired.
