KNITTING PATTERNS Seli Cardigan (German)

Seli Cardigan (German)

£6.00

THIS IS A DIGITAL PATTERN IN GERMAN

Seli is a seamless cropped top-down raglan featuring embellishment on the cuffs, neckline, hem and sleeves. The cuffs, hem and neckline have corrugated rib and an Estonian knitted braid called a Kihnu Vits or Kihnu Braid. The sleeves have descending motifs created using the inlay technique called Roosimine. The sweater is worked seamlessly by placing stitches for the sleeves on hold using waste yarn or a holder while completing the body.

The cardigan is steeked to create the cardigan opening in the front. The steek is marked by a purl stitch column in the stockinette stitch portion of the body and knitted colour stripes in the hem. The buttonhole band and neckband feature corrugated rib worked flat.
