Novice Cardigan – Mohair Edition is knitted from the top down. In other words, you begin by knitting the ribbing at the neckline, followed by the yoke, then the body, and finally the sleeves. The cardigan is knitted in stockinette stitch, while the edges are knitted in ribbing.

Novice Cardigan – Mohair Edition has a round yoke. It is shaped by gradually working increases over four rounds, evenly distributed across the yoke.

Size guide and measurements

Note that you can only rely on the measurements in the pattern if the gauge is maintained.

Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL correspond to a bust measurement of approximately 80-85 (85-90) 90-95 (95-100) 100-110 (110-120) 120-130 (130-140) 140-150 cm. Novice Cardigan – Mohair Edition is designed to have approximately 10 cm of positive ease (i.e. the cardigan should measure approximately 10 cm more than your own body circumference). This means that if, for example, your bust measures 90 cm around (measure yourself with a tape measure around your bust or at the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S, which has a bust circumference of 100 cm. This gives you 10 cm of positive ease.
