Description
Yarn kit for the Copenhagen Cardigan by PetiteKnit.
This effortlessly beautiful and simple cardigan will be your companion for years to come. The Copenhagen Cardigan has a classic shape and a very simple fit. It fastens with small buttons and is ideal for wearing all year round because it is neither too thick nor too thin—it provides the perfect amount of warmth!
A special detail is the beautiful, internal pockets. They are made very simply and discreetly, yet are incredibly practical!
The jacket is knitted seamlessly from the top down in rows, with raglan increases and stockinette stitch. The delicate edges feature a small ribbed pattern. This makes the cardigan very easy and quick to knit.
The Copenhagen Cardigan is knitted with two strands held together using the beautiful combination of Tynn Peer Gynt and Tynn Silk Mohair. This makes it soft yet extremely durable, while also being lightweight and very comfortable. Tynn Peer Gynt is pure virgin wool and simply wonderful; it becomes softer with wear. Tynn Silk Mohair is a high-quality, natural mohair yarn.
Size guide
The Copenhagen Cardigan should have approximately 6 cm of positive ease. Sizes XS (S) M (L) XL (2XL) 3XL (4XL) 5XL fit a body chest circumference of 80–85 (85–90) 90–95 (95–100) 100–110 (110–120) 120–130 (130–140) 140–150 cm. The measurements of the finished cardigan can be found on the cover page. First, take your own measurements before you begin knitting to determine the size that fits you best. If your chest circumference (or the widest part of your body) measures 90 cm, you should choose size S. A cardigan in size S has a chest circumference of 95 cm and would therefore have 5 cm of positive ease in this case.
Knit yourself the Copenhagen Cardigan—it is perfect for a trip to the beach as well as a stroll through the city!
