Tinder

• Product description

  This long A-line cardigan is one of our favorite types of Fall sweater. Tinder has knuckle-length sleeves, a deep-ribbed hem, a stand-up collar, and a classic waffle stitch pattern. The raglan yoke gives the sweater a casual fit and a cozy feel, perfect for layered walks in Autumn. Take the opportunity to indulge in some extra special buttons (we found circular buttons (3/4″ diameter) made of dark brown horn, and love them).

  Designer: Jared Flood

  Collection: Fall 2011

• Pattern Updates

  2 July 2013: Version 2.1

  Missing measurements on the Schematic have been added for those that only contained 6 sizes, rather than 7.
  

  
  

  8 May 2012: Version 2.0

  The Bind Off rows (first rows) of “Shape Armhole” and “Shape Cap” sections were updated to clarify that the last stitch of the bound off underarm stitches is the first “knit 1” of the 3-stitch raglan rib. This change was made on all pieces (Fronts, Back & Sleeves).

  Right Front: The Decrease Row instructions had the “SSK” and “Slip Marker” reversed. The updated instructions read: “Work as established to marker, slip marker, SSK, work to end of row in pattern.”
