Cardigan No. 11

Join us this fall in knitting the gorgeous Cardigan No. 11! This class is designed for you to work through all the challenging parts of the pattern during class. Knit from the top-down, starting with a provisional cast-on, all in one piece. First, you'll cast on provisionally and work the back and fronts. Then you'll pick up stitches for the sleeves and set up your raglan increases. When you've finished the yoke, you'll separate the sleeves from the body, working first the body, then the sleeves. You will pick up stitches and knit your button bands and neckbands, and finish by folding over and stitching down the neckband. Knit this in a single worsted-weight yarn, or hold it together with a strand of mohair as shown in the pattern photo.
