The Structured Cardigan is inspired by a one-size manufactured sweater (size 2). The body is worked from the bottom up and the sleeves are worked from the top down. The arms, body, and collar are stitched together at the end. This sweater was designed for a non-super wash heavy Aran weight yarn which helps keep the detail and structure.

The Structured V Neck Sweater is inspired by a one-size manufactured sweater (size 2). The body is worked from the bottom up and the sleeves are worked from the top down.

Finished Measurements after blocking:
(20”, 22”, 24”)/(51 cm, 56 cm, 61 cm) length from top of shoulder, (10”, 12”, 14”)/(25 cm, 30 cm, 36 cm) length from under arm pit, (50”, 54”, 58”)/(127 cm, 137 cm, 147 cm) bust, (25”, 27”, 29”)/(63.5 cm, 68.5 cm, 74 cm) hip flat, (16”, 16.5”, 17”)/(41 cm,42 cm, 43 cm) arm length from saddle shoulder point.
Gauge: 14 sts and 22 rows = 4” x 4” in stockinette st worked flat on US size 10 (6.0 mm) needles
Suggested yarn:
100 g / 164 yds / 150 m - Cyrano De Rerum Natura (845 yds, 975 yds, 1,110 yds)/(773 m, 892 m, 1,015 m)113 g / 135 yds / 123 m - Briggs & Little Atlantic (620 yds, 710 yds, 810 yds)/(567 m, 649 m, 741 m)
A note about yarn selection:
Gauge and structure of yarn is very important for the garment to achieve its intended final look. The garment is meant to have good structure and little drape. In order to achieve that and avoid yarn that can’t meet gauge, it’s recommended to stick with the suggested yarn or choosing a yarn that is made with 100% non-superwash wool, has good toothiness, and is a true Aran weight yarn (meeting gauge provided above). Yarns deviating from this (other fibers, other weights, superwash treatments, etc) will still knit a beautiful garment, but it may be different than the sample shown of the finished garment.
Needles: US size 8 (5 mm) 16” circular needles (for neck ribbing), DPNs or Shorties (for cuff ribbing), and 45-80” circular needles (for body ribbing), US size 10 (6 mm) 16” circular needles (for arms) and 45-80” circular needles (for body)
