Sval Cardigan (English and Norwegian) - Knitting pattern by Milotté x TheaM.
The Sval Cardigan is worked back and forth in a dotted pattern. The body is knitted in one piece up to the armholes, then divided into back and fronts. The fronts are shaped with decreases for the V-neck, and the shoulders are grafted together. Stitches are picked up around the armholes, and the sleeves are worked straight down with a balloon shape before finishing with ribbing. Finally, stitches are picked up along the front edges to work the button bands.
