Summerland
Digital knitting pattern pdf download
Summerland is a lightweight open-front cardigan with drop shoulder shaping and oversized, slightly balloon-shaped sleeves. It’s knit in an all-over simple lace pattern that is easy to memorize and intuitive, which makes this a great project for knit nights with friends, evenings with your favourite show, or even a day lounging at the beach.
It is knit seamlessly from the top down. The top back is worked first, then the left and right sides are picked up and worked to the underarms. Once the back and fronts are joined, the remainder of the body is worked until the hem. The sleeves are picked up around the underarms and then worked in the round to the wrists. A front band is added, then you’re finished!
For my sample, I’ve used a DK weight wool linen blend, which I love because it combines the coolness of linen with the bounce and memory of wool. Pattern is available in ten sizes from XS to 6X.
