Needles: US 8 / 5 mm (for rib) and US 9 / 5.5 mm 40” / 100 cm circular needles (for main fabric). One extra US 9 / 5.5 mm needle (for the 3-Needle BO).
Notions: Six 1” / 22 mm buttons, two stitch markers, stitch holders or waste yarn, N / 9 mm crochet hook.
GAUGE
14 sts x 20 rows to 4” / 10 cm on US 9 / 5.5 mm needles in St St, using one strand of worsted- and one strand of lace-weight yarn held tog, after blocking.
CONSTRUCTION
This cardigan is worked seamlessly from the bottom up. It features a V-neck, modified dropped shoulders and a drop-stitch cable and tapered sleeves. The button band is knitted as you go, allowing for minimal finishing. The drop-stitch cable is worked right before the shoulder’s 3-Needle Bind-Off. Throughout the whole pattern, faded colour blocking is established by changing the colour of the lace yarn only.
