'Fir Christmas' cardigan - P138
Worked from the top down in one piece. Neckband, cuffs, and hem are worked in Double Moss st.
This little Fir cardigan comes with a few options. Sleeves can be knitted flat or in the round, and the Fir tree pattern along the border can be knitted in one colour (working knit and purl only), or in Fair Isle. Pattern comes with charts/graphs for both versions, plus written row by row instructions for the one colour Fir Tree version. Schematic is also included. If sleeves are knitted flat the only amount of seaming required are the sleeve seams, if knitted in one piece, no seaming required. A great pattern for the advanced beginner, ready to tackle something a little more complicated, or for the Intermediate knitter who loves knitting Fair Isle.
