Hand Knitting Pattern: Shawl collar coat / cardigan
Yarn weight: Thick Aran (8 wpi)
Suggested yarn: Noro Ito, Briggs & Little Heritage 2 Ply, Cascade Yarns ® Eco+
Pattern is designed to use any thick aran / light chunky weight yarn.

This is a standard fitting garment and has approx 2.5-10 cm / 1-4 ins positive ease. Gentle shaping throughout the body makes this a flattering fit for all sizes. Ease at bust can be modified by adjusting the overlap of the front panels. Construction consists of separate pieces worked flat, bottom up. The double faced shawl collar is worked as one piece along with the fronts, then folded and stitched in place.

Easy / Intermediate, many basic skills are used, but explained.
