We are so happy to introduce the gorgeous Smocky Cardigan that signs our first collaboration with Manmi.

 

Manmi writes about the Smocky Cardigan

The Smocky Cardigan is based on a combination of smock stitch and a few cable stitches, with minimal use of seed stitch, creating different patterns for each size. The 2XS, XS, and S sizes feature a simpler design. Due to the different row gauges of the smock stitch compared to other stitches, light blocking is needed after washing.

The cardigan is designed to be oversized. The model with a 90 cm / 35.4” bust is wearing a size M (finished bust circumference approximately 120 cm / 47”). I recommend a positive ease of about 25-30 cm / 10-12” around the bust.

Each size has its own chart to follow. For those who find reading charts in short-row shaping challenging, a full yoke chart is included. The yoke of the back and front panels is worked following the charts, and the body is knitted by repeating the previous patterns.

📒 The Pattern is not included but we have linked it so you can purchase it easily from the Designer directly

The Smocky Cardigan is worked top-down, starting from the back. The shoulder shaping is first created using short rows, then the back is knitted down to the underarms. Stitches are then picked up from the shoulders to knit the front pieces. The right and left fronts are worked separately down to the underarms, where they are joined with the back to continue knitting the body. Stitches are picked up around the armholes to knit the sleeves in the round. Stitches are also picked up along the front edges to knit the button bands. Finally, stitches are picked up around the neckline to knit the neckband, completing the cardigan.
