Description

The Eva Cardigan It works from top to bottom. First, the upper part of the back is done with increases. After that, stitches are picked up along the back for the shoulders. Stitches are then picked up along the shoulders and the remaining pass is collected and knitted on a circular knitting needle, while in addition increases are made on the front for the V-neck. The body is worked in rows on a circular knitting needle, the sleeves in rounds. Finally, stitches are picked up along the leading edge and the wide aperture is made in a double rib pattern.

The Eva Cardigan should have a range of movement (positive ease) of about 26 cm for the smaller sizes and a gradually smaller range of movement for the larger sizes. The sizes XXS(XS)S(M)L(XL)2XL (3XL)4XL (5XL) match a chest circumference on the body of 75-80 (80-85)85-90 (90-95)95-100 (100-110) 110-120 (120-130) 130-140 (140-150) cm. The dimensions of the finished cardigantic jacket can be found on the title page. Note: These dimensions apply only if the gauge is observed. Take measurements of yourself first before you start the actual knitting to determine the size that suits you best. If your chest circumference (or the widest part of your body) is 90 cm, you should choose size S. A sweater in Gr. S has a breast circumference of 116 cm and in this case would have a range of movement (positive ease) of 26 cm.
