LEARN as you KNIT: This pattern comes with a full Mini-Course and exclusive video tutorials to master Intarsia and other key techniques used.

The Intarsia ResetCardi was inspired by the need for clean lines, perfect fit, and elegant tailoring. It shares the same cut as the cropped ResetCardi and RebootTop - simple, timeless pieces that are easy to wear. This colourful version with integrated, seamless pockets introduces a new format that combines learning and knitting a full project.

Included is a 3-page Intarsia Mini-Course packed with theory, tips, and video links, adapted from Rililie’s 3-hour workshop. It’s designed to help you master Intarsia while immediately working on a real garment, so you can dive into both learning and making at the same time.

The cardigan’s design emphasizes fit, featuring soft slopes at the shoulders, two-toned diagonal lines, an innovative pocket, slim integrated button band, and i-cord edges. The yoke is worked in Rililie’s combination technique for a perfect shoulder fit, and the Intarsia detailing highlights each section. With minimal finishing needed, just sew on the buttons and enjoy your completed piece! Two sleeve variations are included, and you can choose to knit either or both.

Disclaimer: This is a long PDF with 18 pages filled with tips, tutorials, and a comprehensive Intarsia course. It’s a LEARN-AS-YOU-KNIT pattern, offering all the necessary info right when you need it. Perfect for beginners or anyone looking to refresh their Intarsia skills.

A big Grazie to Michela LaMicky for translating this pattern into Italian!
