Like a Feather Cardigan




More sweaters please! February is almost halfway gone and we have really enjoyed all the snow this winter. Also I have had plenty of time to get many new designs on the needles and time to get some designs ready too - like this lovely cardigan that I'm publishing today.

The sample of Like a Feather was actually finished more than a year ago, as it was my go-to cardigan in Berlin Knits 2017 - so perfect for early autumn weather!





Like a Feather Cardigan

Like a Feather is a lovely and long open front cardigan with easy top down construction.

This cardigan lets the yarn shine and show its true nature - it really feels like a feather: soft and light yet warm and wonderful to wear. Little details with garter stitch bands and broken rib cuffs highlight the beauty of this simple design.

Finished chest circumference: 32 (36, 40, 44, 48, 52, 56)” / 80 (90, 100, 110, 120, 130, 140) cm. Choose a size with approx. 2” (5 cm) of positive ease.

Yarn: 9 (10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 17) skeins of Luft by Woolfolk (55% Merino, 45% Organic Pima Cotton; 109 yards (100 meters) per 50g). Approx. 980 (1100, 1210, 1320, 1450,1570, 1700) yards / 900 (1000, 1100, 1210, 1330, 1440, 1560) meters of bulky weight yarn. The sample was knit in size medium and in colorway L6, heather gray.
