Description

Instructions (PDF) for the Charles Gray Cardigan from Knitting for Olive.

Charles Grey, named after the classic Earl Gray tea, embodies exactly its character: classic, timeless and yet extremely cozy.

The Charles Gray Cardigan is knitted top down, providing an excellent opportunity to adjust the length as desired.

The panel of this cardigan is ribbed along the front and neck and is knitted at the same time as the rest of the jacket, creating a seamless and harmonious look.

For the sleeves, stitches are picked up along the armholes and formed using short rows. The sleeves, like the torso, have ribbed cuffs, which ensures a stylish and comfortable fit. The Charles Gray Cardigan is a timeless piece of clothing that perfectly combines elegance and comfort.

The cardigan is designed with a range of motion greater than your actual chest measurement (positive ease).
