Twist and Shout Cardigan English

Twist and Shout Cardigan Knitting Pattern (English)

The twist and Shout Cardigan is a raglan model, knitted top down. The model has a tight fit and is cropped. The sleeves are knit with decrease and a closefitting rib. The cardigan has a tight and compact structure due to the cable pattern throughout the work. The stitches between the cables are purl, which adds a rib effect to the pattern.

The work starts with a rib neckband, and continues with increase and division to raglan. The yoke is worked in cable pattern with increase around the raglan stitches, until the work is divided into body and sleeves. These are finished separately. Both the body and sleeves are finished with ribbing and Italian bind off. Finally, the plackets are made on both sides.
