Easy cardigan sweater knitting pattern: wool and mohair – カーディガン 編み図

I finally finished knitting my very first cardigan sweater! I started at the beginning of the year worked on it periodically. If I had knitted consistently, I think I could have finished it in less than 10 weeks. I’m still quite a slow knitter though, so if you are experienced, I’m sure you’ll finish this project very quickly.

やっと初めての手編みカーディガンが完成しました！一月ごろから編み始めたのですが、もし毎日続けていれば十週間ほどで終わったかもしれません。私はまだ編むのが遅いので経験がある人はもっと早く出来上がるでしょうね。

The Knitting Pattern

I was looking for a knitting pattern similar to the ACNE Lesley cardigan. The cardigan knitting pattern I chose is the Ladies Slip Stitch Cardigan – 8 ply from Bendigo Woollen Mills. The slip stitch knits up extremely fast and creates the vertical lines on the garment. I found the hardest part was not knitting, but sewing all the pieces together at the end!

アクネのカーディガンに似ている編み図が欲しくて、ようやくLadies Slip Stitch Cardigan – 8 ply from Bendigo Woollen Millsを見つけました。スリップステッチが縞模様になります。編むより最後に縫い合わせるのが一番大変でした。

 

The Yarn

This yarn is also from Bendigo Woollen Mills. I picked a wool and mohair blend in 8 ply to imitate the fluffy feel of the ACNE cardigan I liked.

If I can do it, you can too! I am by no means an experienced or remotely skilled knitter. With the help of YouTube and lots and lots of patience, this is a great knitting pattern for those of you who are ready to graduate from knitting scarves.
