About the recipe

Spring Vibes Cardi is a chunky, light, airy and quick-knit cardigan that goes perfectly over any outfit on nice spring days or late summer evenings. The jacket is knitted top down, back and forth in stocking stitch. First, the upper part of the back piece is knitted, then stitches are picked up along the shoulder seams. The two shoulders are knitted separately with increases, before they are gathered under the sleeves and the body is knitted together back and forth. The sleeves are picked up and knitted in stocking stitch before rib. Finally, stitches are picked up along the edges, which are cast off with i-cord.

The jacket has a Positive Ease of approx. 15-25 cm. This means that you have to measure your chest measurement and add approx. 15-25 cm to find the right size. For example, if you have an 87 cm chest measurement, you can knit size XXS/XS with a positive ease of 15 cm, or an S/M for an extra oversized jacket with 25 cm positive ease. Trude's jacket has a positive ease of approx. 24 cm. Note that the stated yarn quantity applies to the stated length. If you want to knit the jacket longer, you should calculate extra yarn for this.
