The seamless top-down construction allows a tailored fit at the shoulders, neck and arms, so as to keep an elegant touch to this otherwise cozy and ample garment.
The cardigan features a longer back with a softly rounded, large hem in a simple but effective slip-stitch pattern, a play with colour and texture and fun, striped pocket linings.
In this sample the yarn used is 100% cotton, but it can easily be substituted with any DK weight yarn that achieves a similar effect in the textured parts of the sleeves and hem.
All techniques and methods are either explained in the pattern itself with attached photo tutorials, or links are provided that point to web-tutorials.

BlueSand gives you the opportunity to choose between two different yoke constructions that are provided in two separate PDF's for download:
The combination yoke version features a different take on yoke construction, combining various methods to achieve a soft sloping shoulder line. The easier yoke construction of the raglan version is a hybrid between a saddle shoulder and a raglan sleeve.
Each version of the pattern has charted and written instructions.
As a visual aid there is a “quick-overview” of the whole yoke in chart-form to print out, which helps to keep track of the instructions that happen on each row according to your size.
