Mon Cher is a top down cardigan, which starts with the construction of the back, stitches taken up to
work the two fronts, to join everything in one piece. For the model I was inspired by Coco Chanel’s jackets.
The sleeves are worked with a series of short rows.
Mon Cher is worked with double yarn, a dry one that gives it texture and a soft one that makes it soft to
the touch.
If you love to pick up stitches, this is the cardigan for you !!!
