Ingrid cardigan
Ingrid is our interpretation of the most beautiful, fluffy, silk mohair cardigan or summerjacket. It weighs only 210 g in a size M. Perfect across bare shoulders on a summer evening, where the sun is about to go down and the view of the sea and the sunset is enjoyed from the top of a sand dune in Kandestederne by the North Sea in North Jutland, Denmark. You can also cram it into a bag when going out. We have knitted it short and in stripes, so that it fits the summer dresses and skirts.

The model is very oversize, which means app. 30 cm / 11 3⁄4 more than the chest width and with deep armholes.

Directions
The cardigan is knit back and forth, from top to bottom. Cast on stitches using a temporary crochet cast on for knitting the rib edge at the neck from the middle and out. Then pick up and knit stitches along this collar and knit the cardigan from the top down in one piece. The yoke
is worked with raglan increases and with deep armholes. Hereafter the work is divided, and both sleeves and body are worked separately. The length can easily be adjusted and knit longer if desired.
