Johanne cardigan

Done! It’s currently soaked in wool wash :) I love the cut - it looks neat, elegant and relaxed at the bottom. I’m hoping the wool get softer after blocking. Let’s see.

• Knit the 1x1 rib neckline as described. Initially I knitted few more rows but found it looks a bit chunky, so I unravelled back to 2cm length.
• Italian tubular bind off for the all the rib, which takes forever and hard to manage the long thread for the neckline, but I think it’s worth it!
• Seam the pocket using this method Seaming garter stitch with mattress stitch. It looks really neat and invisible.
