Please Note: Yarn quantities above are updated and different from those printed in the magazine

Gauge: 13 sts & 38 rows = 10cm / 4” over Brioche stitch worked flat on 4.5mm needles, after blocking.
One rep of Cable Pattern plus 2 rev St st edge sts (18 sts & 10 rows) = 5.5cm / 2¼“ wide and 4cm / 1½” long on 4.5mm needles, after blocking.
NOTE: When checking gauge, work both patterns in one swatch using short rows, as for main pattern rows 1-8 of the sleeve.

Needles: 4.5mm / US 7 circular needle, 80cm / 32” length and spare needle for three-needle cast-off
4mm / US 6 circular needle, 80cm / 32” length and DPNs (for front edging)
Always use a needle size that will result in the correct gauge after blocking.

Notions: 2 stitch markers, cable needle, scrap yarn or stitch holders, tapestry needle.

Notes: Oneiro is worked flat and sideways in two pieces, working from the sleeve cuff towards the centre back. Once the sleeve has been worked, additional stitches are cast on for the front and the back panels and the neckline is shaped with decreases. When both sides are complete, they are joined at the centre back with a three-needle cast-off. The cardigan is finished off with a double-knitted hem and front edging.
Short rows are used throughout so that the same row gauge can achieved for the cable pattern and the brioche stitch pattern; for every 4 rows of the Cable Pattern, 6 rows of brioche are worked. The wrap & turn method is used but wraps should not be picked up on subsequent rows; work wrapped sts as regular sts. To lengthen or shorten the cardigan, when working the Front and Back Panels cast on 2 sts more / less on each side for every 1.5cm / ½“ you wish to add or subtract from the length.

Yarn & Colour Changes
This design is about playing with colour and the number of colours used can be chosen freely. Three strands of yarn are held tog throughout. Fade colours into each other by exchanging only one of the three strands at a time.
