Alma Cardi (English, Norwegian, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Swedish and Danish) – Knitting pattern by Milotté.
Alma Cardi is knitted bottom-up, back and forth. The cardigan features beautiful seafoam wave edges framing the bottom, along the front bands, and at the sleeve cuffs. The body is worked in one piece to the armholes, then divided into back and fronts. V-neck shaping with decreases, shoulders joined, and sleeves are picked up and knitted top-down in the round. Includes an I-cord tie for a charming finish.
