Fred+Ginger Cardigan

Fred+Ginger is a sophisticated fitted cardigan with set in, three quarter length sleeves and softly ruffled edges. The lightweight ruffle is worked in dyed to match cashmere silk laceweight for a fun feminine twist on the basic cardigan. Twisted ribbing completes the buttonbands and collar. Fred+Ginger is a bottom-up cardigan, with the body worked in one piece to the armholes then the upper fronts and back worked separately. The 3/4 length sleeves are knit in the round to the underarm, then worked flat for the sleeve cap, and seamed to the body. Buttonbands and collar are picked up and worked after the body is complete, and then the ruffle is picked up and worked in a complementary lightweight yarn. Shown in size 37” / 94cm with no ease.
