Oscail Cardigan
Originally part of digital Celtic Knits Club, still available here. This includes all patterns, video workshop (fully captioned) and an exclusive chat forum on KnitHub.
This comfortable, relaxed fit cardigan will become your favourite winter companion.
Knit in one piece from the bottom up, there are underarm gussets added at the top of the body.
You will then divide the front and back to be worked separately for the upper body and finally finished with short row shoulder shaping and a three needle bind off. Sleeves will be worked in the round from the top down.
