Pepper Cardigan

Pepper Cardigan is a lovely chunky raglan cardigan. It is knitted with 2 strands of Fat Mohair, making it light and fluffy.

The Pepper Cardigan is worked top-down, knitting back and forth with raglan increases as well as neckline increases. Once the yoke is completed, the work is divided into body and sleeves. The sleeve stitches are placed on hold while the front pieces and back are joined and stitches are cast on for the underarms. Both the body and sleeves are finished with a rib edge. Finally, a vertical rib edge is knitted along the front edges and neckline.

We have also put together KITS for the Pepper Cardigan, which you can find here.
