FRUITY CARDIGAN LEMON KNITTING KIT

We love fruity knits – and now we have a cardigan like our fruity sweater. The cardigan is a new improved pattern from the Fruity sweater, and includes step-by-step instruction for start and diagram for start front piece. The pattern is intermediate, but you need to be able to measure your gauge correctly.

The pattern is made for Fluff mohair yarn. This yarn is a fluffy mohair / wool blend and looks great knitted in different needlesizes as the fiber “fills” the stitches very nice. Because of this, to get the best result with the fruits, the sizes are made by changing needlesize. If you look at pictures you can see that the cardigans looks great in both small and largest size.

Pattern is knitted top down and tip for adjusting sizes in pattern.

On pictures you see size XS in  «Candy Pop pink», «Berrylicious» (strawberry), «Pine Forest» (stem), and «Lemonade» (spots). Light pink version size M in main color «fairytale pink», berries «Lipstick red» «Pine Forest» (stem), and «Lemonade» (spots).
The lemon cardigan is size L-XL, main color “Lemonade”, stem «Pine Forest» and lemons in color «little Miss Sunshine”
