White Hairs
Once a tiny child, now an old man.
White hairs to match the soft down.
How the heart gets hurt by life.
Beyond the Gateless Gate’s
Where craving ends.

The torso of a cardigan is often
knit as a single piece in a simple back-and-forth manner.
By contrast, knitting a pullover as a single piece requires circular
knitting. Alternatively, the body of the cardigan may be knit in three
pieces, one for the back and two for the front.
Although all types of necklines are found in cardigans, the V-neckline
is especially popular.
The seam in front of a cardigan allows for many fashionable variations.

Picture of
clothes model click and see what your pattern will look like
the
numbers; for instance 8 x 12 = your
gauge
so you have to
knit a tension swatch first
then
choose your pattern with the right gauge |

FOR MEASUREMENTS IN CMS SCROLL DOWN |
|
Knit a tension swatch
first measure 4 X 4 INCHES
and count the stitches and rows ; this is your gauge. You can use any
knitting stitch and knit with any knitting yarn you like, if it has a similar gauge.
Needle size is not so important, every knitter knits differently. When you are looking at a pattern, it is the gauge or tension swatch that really matters. This is the base for all my basic knitting patterns.
If you have more or
lesser rows in your tension swatch, follow the length given in cm's
instead of rows, in a pattern, this way it will fit always.
Tips for regular inch increments
17.7 = 17.75 = 17 3/4 inches. 18,8 = 18.75 = 18 3/4 inches. 9.9 = 10 inches and so on.
Knowing this will make it easy to just round up or down as they are such small increments.
