Reintroducing Teresa – a textured, long-sleeved, cardigan with a plunging v-neckline. Broad ribbing trims its edges, in color contrasting and rhythm complimentary to its overall stitch pattern – the Seeded Rib Check, an easy-to-remember 4 stitch by 12 row repeat of alternating knits and purls.

Worked bottom-up, side seams have been removed in this version, with sleeves in the round and set-in. Pocket linings worked separately, are inserted to the bodice at the hips, resuming the stitch sequence found there. Dress it up or down, this fun design is perfect for layering and seasonal transitions. Enjoy!
