Notes

Stay tuned for a new design from Natasja Hornby (@moonstruckmermaid)!

Tosca is a perfect combination of squishy texture and an ingenious design, that makes for a great fit of your cardigan!

While this may not be a beginner’s project, the instructions (as always from Natasja) are clear and easy to follow.

Make sure to choose a yarn for this knit, that will accentuate both texture and shape. A woolen yarn with some elasticity and good stitch definition would be ideal.

Mods:

  • Shortened sleeve approx 4 cm and Cuffs with 6 sts.
  • Knitted cuff over 50 sts and added one more short-row.
  • Knit the button-loops directly on the sweater with a 2-st. I-cord, to get a slightly “lighter” feel of the front.
