The Scottish Collection (1992) shows V-neck Cardigan and Pullover. This Morning Woolcraft (1993) shows V-neck Cardigan. Virtual Yarns has a crew-neck cardigan.

Skills needed: large and small diameter knitting in 2 colours, join in a new colour, corrugated ribbing, increase, steeking, kitchener stitch, pick up stitches, decrease in pattern.

Additional size information:

Large, knitted measurement of 48inches

Tip :

Those who do the medium size which has an odd number of repeats should be aware that the designer does not centre the pattern after the ribbing, but midway through the first repeat.

If you do as per instructions, you’ll end up with the pattern on the body not lining up the same way as the pattern on the sleeves and chart.
