Snowflakes<br />

& evergreens<br />

cardigan<br />

The Snowflakes and<br />

Evergreens Cardigan is a Fair<br />

Isle cardigan with winter<br />

elements which will quickly<br />

become a favourite during<br />

the cold winter months.<br />

The large shawl collar can be<br />

turned up against a windy<br />

day and the sleeves are<br />

generously sized to allow<br />

for layering.<br />

This design is knitted<br />

circularly whenever<br />

possible, using steeks<br />

(bridge stitches) to form a<br />

cylinder that is cut open for<br />

the cardigan front opening.<br />

Steeks are also used for the<br />

sleeve openings and even<br />

the neckline, all to keep you<br />

knitting with the right side<br />

facing you. The only purl<br />

stitches are in the ribbing,<br />

top section of the sleeves,<br />

bands, and collar.<br />
