Spot Cardigan
SPOT CARDIGAN is a classic cardigan with a simple stranded
pattern and twisted rib details.
The cardigan is worked from the top down. The first part of the
yoke is worked back and forth to shape the neckline. After this,
the work is joined in the round, and the yoke, body, and sleeves
are worked in the round while steeking stitches are worked
mid-front on the body. After this, the cardigan is steeked. First,
stitches are sewn along both sides of the steeking stitches, and
then the front is steeked by cutting the cardigan open along the
center front.
Stitches are then picked up and knitted along the front edges for
the rib, and the same is done along the neck edge. At the end,
the ribbon is sewn along the insides of the front edges, and the
buttons are sewn across from the buttonholes.
For me, the first 12 rows of the pattern require extra concen-
tration. Pay careful attention and follow the description row by
row during the knitting of the neckline so the pattern and the
raglan increases align, become symmetrical, and meet correctly
along the raglan lines.
In the pattern, you will find links to helpful videos describing
how I sew, steek, and sew in the ribbon on the wrong side of the
work.

How much positive ease you like in your clothes varies from
