Perla Cardigan

Perla is a summer cardigan that is knitted in garter stitch from the top down. Start with an I-cord for the neckline. From this, stitches are picked up for the front, back and sleeves.
Short rows in the neck area ensure a good fit.
The raglan slants are emphasized by slip stitches.
After the increases, the sleeve stitches are first set aside and the body is worked in a straight shape. The back is lengthened before the final I-cord by shortening the rows. The wide sleeves are worked over the previously set aside stitches without decreases in rows and also end with an I-cord. Finally, the sleeve seams are closed with mattress stitch.
