  • Norte - Cardigan

    About Norte

    When we thought about which garments we wanted to include in BREEZE we immediately knew we needed at least one cardigan that you could throw on over summer dresses, tops and t-shirts. Something that you’d wear in the morning when it’s still crisp outside or for those walks home after midnight; something just like Norte. It’s the perfect layering piece!

    This listing is for the single PDF pattern. You'll get an email with a download link immediately after purchase.

      What you could knit it with from our selection: De Rerum Natura Ulysse!

      Lankakauppa Kerä Vänö Ull, (100% Lambswool; 150 metres / 164 yards per 50 g)

      Sample shown is knit in colourway Grey. Caro wears a size 2 with 1 cm / 0.4“ of positive ease.

      Needles

      2.5 mm / US 1.5 circular needle with a cable length of at least 80 cm / 32” (or needle size to obtain gauge)

      2 mm / US 0 circular needle with a cable length of at least 80 cm / 32”

      If you work sleeves with double-pointed needles you also
      need them in both sizes.

      Gauge

      20 sts x 30 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4” x 4” (knit flat, in stockinette st, on 2.5 mm / US 1.5 needle, after blocking)

      20 sts x 30 rows = 10 x 10 cm / 4” x 4” (knit in the round, in stockinette st, on 2.5 mm / US 1.5 needle, after blocking)

      Please check your gauge flat and in rounds (for sleeves), it might be that you need a different needle size to get the same gauge in the round.
