This knitting pattern is in Swedish.
We knit this in Norwegian yarn Blåne and you can choose whether you want it with or without Soft Silk Mohair.
The Sunday Cardigan is knitted from top to bottom in one strand of Inca Wool and two strands of silk mohair. The yoke is worked back and forth in garter stitch with increases, and the front edges are worked at the same time. The sleeves of the Sunday Cardigan are extra long. The neck edge is folded and sewn to the inside. You make the buttonholes at the end (i.e. not knitted afterwards) by sewing around the edge with buttonhole stitches.
NOTE: Before you start, you should make a test piece and test if the stitch size gives you the correct stitch strength of 12 m per 10 cm. If you knit a little hard, you should possibly use st 8 mm. If the stitch strength is not correct, the size will change significantly.
