Blue Salt
A classic wardrobe staple cardigan is always useful.
The structured and elegant silhouette of this one is achieved through the good shoulder construction and sturdy knit-along Structured rib. Once the techniques are learned, they could easily be used again and again.
CONSTRUCTION
The cardigan is knitted entirely seamlessly from the top of the collar to the bottom without breaking the yarn.
The shoulder lines are slanted back for a better fit. The bottom hem is split at the sides, allowing the back to be longer. Buttonholes are executed as everything else, without cutting the yarn. The body and sleeves are straight, without shaping.
SIZES

Finished chest circumference 90cm (36”), 97cm (38.25”) and 110cm (43.5”)

YARDAGE: 1200m/1310 yards for size S (1400m/1530 yards - M, 1600m/1750 yards - L)
