In my Tree
Sleek and elegant, this top down cardigan uses an interesting increase technique that creates the illusion of slipped stitches. Real slipped stitches, instead, mark the decreases in the sleeves and the waist shaping in the back. The sleeve shaping, unusually, is mainly worked along the top of the sleeve by working a centered double decrease in the exposed front of the sleeve. A few extra decreases are placed in the hidden part of the sleeve. All of the borders in the cardigan are knitted in the Embossed leaves pattern from a 1970’s stitch collection. This is an easy combination of knit and purl which lays flat, but it is not elastic and will not cinch in. I have used the same needle for the borders as for the rest of the cardigan, but if you prefer the borders to be slightly more compact you may want to use a needle one size smaller.
Lineare ed elegante, questo cardigan top down usa un’interessante tecnica di aumenti che crea l’illusione di maglie passate. Le maniche e la sciancratura sono invece marcate da vere maglie passate che ne delineano la sagomatura. La manica è sagomata con diminuzioni eseguite, insolitamente, soprattutto sulla parte superiore e visibile della manica, una diminuzione doppia centrata. Poche diminuzioni extra sono posizionate sotto al braccio. Tutti i bordi del cardigan sono lavorati nel motivo a “Foglie a bassorilievo” trovato in una raccolta di punti degli anni Settanta. Si tratta di una facile combinazione di dritto e rovescio che si mantiene piatta, anche se non è elastica e non restringe o polsini. Ho usato lo stesso ferro per i bordi e per il resto del capo, ma se preferite bordi più compatti potete usare un ferro leggermente più sottile.
Simple et élégant, ce gilet en top-down utilise une technique d’augmentations intéressante qui crée l’illusion de mailles glissées. Des vraies mailles glissées, en revanche, marquent les diminutions des manches et le façonnage de la taille sur le dos. Contrairement à l’usage, les doubles diminutions des manches sont réalisées surtout sur leur partie visible. Quelques diminutions en plus sont placées dans la partie interne et cachée des manches.
Les bordures du gilet sont réalisées avec le motif « Feuilles gaufrées » provenant d’une collection de points de tricot des années Soixante-dix. C’est une simple alternance de mailles endroit et de mailles envers qui ne roulotte pas, mais qui n’est pas élastique et ne serre pas. J’ai utilisé pour la bordure la même taille d’aiguilles que pour le reste de l’ouvrage, mais si vous préférez des bords plus compacts vous pouvez utiliser une taille d’aiguilles inférieure.
