Dakkar
If you want to cuddle up in a warm long cardigan or a lightweight coat in the fall, this is the one. In a beautiful mix of
Isager’s Alpaca 1, Highland Wool and Silk Mohair, designed in a clever stripe pattern and knitted in different directions, it is a special knitting experience, without getting too complicated. Cosy pockets complete the experience. The cardigan can be made so it is reversible, it only requires extra pocket edges on the one side and beautiful seaming at the sides.

Directions
First knit the back and front pieces individually, with edges below and an I-cord edge along the front pieces. Bind off for the neck at the center front of the front pieces, and the shoulders are knitted together from the wrong side. Pick up and knit stitches along both side seams from the right side and knit back and forth. The side seams are then knitted together, and you continue directly to knit the sleeves on each side.
