Shark Cardigan HB04 designed by Halla Ben
shark cardigan HB-04
The Shark Cardigan is worked flat and the borders are worked simultaneously using smaller needles. The sleeves are worked in the round up to the armholes. At the armhole sleeve and body stitches are joined on one circular needle to work the yoke, which has raglan decreases.
It is advisable to do a swatch with different sizes to decide what needles are best to use to use, as the cardigan calls for some drape. You will use lace stitches and moss stitch throughout the pattern.
