The Scrumper Cardigan is a celebration of textural details and a classic silhouette that’s perfect for layering up. With a v-neck, straight body and choice of lengths and button placement (left or right), it’s a versatile piece that can suit a variety of styles. The cardi has moss stitch edging flanked by columns of simple cables that run up the sides and front opening, and flow around the armholes and neck, and down the underside of the sleeves. The cardigan is knitted bottom-up, with the buttonband worked at the same time as the body. Fronts and back are separated at the underarm, with armhole and neck shaping. The shoulders are seamed with a three-needle bind-off, and extensions of the buttonband are knitted and stitched down round the back neck. Stitches are picked up for the sleeves and worked with decreasing short rows from the top down, before tapering to the wrist where the cuff finishes with moss stitch.
