BELLA CARDIGAN

Bella Cardigan is knitted top down with raglan increases. The neckline is formed using reverse stitches. The yoke and body are knitted back and forth on circular needles, and the sleeves are knitted in the round. Finally, buttonholes are knitted along the front edges and along the neckline.

Size selection: Bella Cardigan has a positive ease of movement of approximately 5-10 cm. Measure your chest width and find the size that is 5-10 cm above this measurement. For example, if you measure 90 cm around your chest (or the widest part of your body), you should knit a size S. A cardigan in size S has a width of 96 cm and in the example mentioned will provide a positive ease of movement of 6 cm.
