Knitting Kit - Ivy Cardigan by Petiteknit

Pattern not included - you must purchase the pattern on Ravelry here. 

Pattern available in French and English. 

The Ivy Cardigan is worked flat, back and forth, from the top down, and in one piece.
The yoke is shaped in several sections: in the first, increases are made at the shoulders; in the next, only on the sleeves; then, in the last, classic raglan increases are made on both the body and the sleeves.
The sleeves are worked in the round, either on double-pointed needles or on a circular needle using the Magic Loop technique.
Finally, bands are knitted along the fronts and around the neckline.

Size Guide

The Ivy Cardigan is designed with approx. 2 cm [¾ in] of positive ease, meaning it is intended to be approx. 2 cm wider than your bust circumference.

Sizes XXS (XS) S (M) L (XL) 2XL (3XL) 4XL (5XL) are suitable for a bust circumference of:
75–80 (80–85) 85–90 (90–95) 95–100 (100–110) 110–120 (120–130) 130–140 (140–150) cm
[29½–31½ (31½–33½) 33½–35½ (35½–37½) 37½–39½ (39½–43¼) 43¼–47¼ (47¼–51¼) 51¼–55 (55–59) in]

Measurements for the finished cardigan are on the first page of the pattern
(these are only valid if the gauge is met).
Measure yourself before starting to determine the ideal size.

👉 For example, if your bust circumference is 90 cm [35½ in], you should knit size S.
A size S cardigan measures 92 cm [36¼ in] in circumference, which will provide a positive ease of 2 cm [¾ in] in this example.
