Tove is a lovely oversized cardigan knitted from top to bottom with raglan increases. The cardigan, knitted in Handdyed Fat Mohair is wonderfully fluffy and features a beautiful stripe pattern created with garter slip stitch. The pattern is super easy, and you always knit with only one color at a time.
Tove is knit from the top, where you knit back and forth with increases at the beginning and end of the row to shape the neckline. Simultaneously, increases are made at the 4 raglan markers to shape the shoulders. Once the neck and shoulders are shaped, the work is divided into body and sleeves. The stitches for the sleeves are placed on a stitch holder, and the front and back pieces are joined while casting on stitches for the armholes. After that, the body is knit in one piece and finished with a ribbed edge at the bottom. The sleeves are knit back and forth and also finished with a ribbed edge. The sleeve seams are sewn together. Finally, stitches are picked up along the front edges and neckline, and a ribbed edging is knit using turning rows.
