• Product description

  Garter stitch, colorwork, and Quarry — surely few can beat the Pascal Cardigan in feats of coziness. Pascal features a woodsy three-color motif that is enjoyable for stranded colorwork knitters of all levels — chunky, woolen-spun Quarry makes this cardigan an especially approachable project for those new to steeking. Seamless raglan construction from the bottom up makes Pascal additionally well suited to act as an adventurous guide into the wonderful world of garment knitting.

  The body and sleeves of this cardigan are worked circularly from the bottom up and joined at the underarms, then the yoke is worked in the round; the underarms are joined using Kitchener Stitch. The body and the yoke are shaped using Short Rows: Wrap & Turn Method. A steek is used to create the front opening. The front bands and collar are picked up and worked flat after the steek is cut. The men’s and women’s versions share the same range of chest sizes, but differ in body and sleeve lengths and in waist shaping. The colorwork motif is worked from charts only.

  Designer: Gudrun Johnston

  Collection: Winter 2019

  CONSTRUCTION

  • The body and sleeves are worked circularly from the bottom up and joined at the underarms, then the yoke is worked in the round. Both the body and the yoke are shaped using Short Rows: Wrap and Turn Method. A steek is used to create the front opening. The center front steek is secured and then cut open before picking up stitches along the front and back neck edges for the collar/band piece. After the collar/band is worked, the steek is neatly tacked to the WS of the garment, either with yarn or sewing thread.

  GAUGE

  • 14 stitches & 20 rounds = 4″ in chart patterns with Size B needle(s), after blocking

  
  

  Note: Correct length of the one-piece yoke is dependent upon achieving the stated round gauges. 14 stitches & 32 rows = 4″ in garter stitch with Size C needle(s), after blocking

  
  

  NEEDLES

  Size A (for Single-Color Stockinette Stitch)

  • One each 16″ and 32″ circular needles and one set of double-pointed needles (DPNs)* in size needed to obtain gauge listed
  • Suggested Size: 6 mm (US 10)

  
  

  Size B (for Chart Patterns)

  • One 32″ circular needle and one set of DPNs*, one size larger than Size A
  • Suggested Size: 6.5 mm (US 10½)

  
  

  Due to significant variance among knitters, your colorwork fabric should be swatched and wet-blocked prior to knitting your sweater to determine whether Size B should be larger, smaller, or equal to Size A. We recommend trying Speed-Swatching for Circular Knitting.

  
  

  Size C (for Garter Stitch)

  • One 32″ circular needle and one set of DPNs* in size needed to obtain gauge listed
  • Suggested Size: 5.5 mm (US 9)

  
  

  *32” circular needle can be used instead of 16” circular and DPNs if using the Magic Loop method for working small circumferences in the round.

  
  

  Please note: the stitch patterns in this garment are charted only.
