Copenhagen Cardigan - Petite Knit

This knitting pattern is in Swedish.

It is knitted in Alpaca 2 together with 1 strand of Silk Mohair from Isager.

The Copenhagen Cardigan is knitted from top to bottom with raglan increases, back and forth on circular needles. The neckline is shaped using short rows. The Copenhagen Cardigan is knitted in stockinette stitch, while along the front edges ribbing is knitted to shape the button band. The buttonholes are made last and are therefore not knitted as you go. Internal pockets are knitted on the body. The sleeves are knitted in the round in stockinette stitch on double-pointed needles or using the Magic Loop technique.
