Spring

Spring is he second of the series of “Season patterns”.

For Autumn, which was the first I designed, you had to stitch. That prevented many from knitting the cardigan and for Spring, I have designed a pattern where you knit all of it on circular needles.

The model is knitted in Kauni effect yarn. For the one at the picture are used Kauni-EU for the background and solid white Kauni (AA) for the flower motifs.

For the tucks is used solid Kauni RR.

When knitting with multicoloured yarn, you can never be quite sure of the result.  In return you will get your own unique sweater, and there is a rich possibility to let your own favourite colours impact on the pattern.

You can knit the sweater in solid Kauni, Evilla Artyarn 8/2, 2-ply Shetland wool or other similar qualities of yarn.

Tension:

Needle size 3½mm

24 sts and 27 rows = 10x10 cm
 

Yarn supplies:

Small: 275 g

Medium: 300 g

Large: 340 g

There are used about equal amounts of yarn for the background and the motifs. For the tucks are used 25 g in an contrasting colour.  You can as well tick out a colour of the colourway, you have chosen for the sweater.

I recommend to have abundant of yarn to have the possibility to select (or deselect) colours of the colourway, for instance if you want equal nuances for the sleeves.

The pattern is build up by modules. The size of the module determinate the size of the sweater. That means you have to use the main descriptions of the pattern but use the charts for the size you want to knit.

The pattern is for the following sizes of the sweater:
