Ellen's Cardigan

Ellen's Cardigan is knitted from top to bottom with raglan increases, back and forth on the circular needle. The neckline is formed using turning pins. The cardigan is knitted in stockinette stitch, while rib is knitted along the front edges to form buttonholes. Buttonholes are made at the end and are therefore not knitted in during the process. Inner pockets are knitted on the body. The sleeves are knitted in the round in stockinette stitch on double pointed needles or with the Magic Loop technique.

Ellen's Cardigan fits both girls and boys.
