For this cardigan I used almost forgotten weaving technique,
that required combination of thin and thick yarn to produce
fabric with unique texture effect.
Variegated buckle type weaving yarn with loops (100gr/3.5 oz -140m /150yd) is the best choice.
The fabric is not stretchy. To provide a better fit, some sewing elements were adapted and applied.

Knit on a standard gauge punch card or electronic knitting machine with weaving capability.
