“Nastja” is a perfect cardigan on cool autumn days outside or cold winter days inside. It’s a little bit oversized and without buttons. If you like to wear it closed it looks beautiful with a belt. The cardigan is worked from bottom up in single pieces. The stitches for the sleeves are picked up from the side seams of back and front parts and worked from top down in rows. The long ribbing band is worked all aroung the cardigan’s edges in rounds at last.
