Matilde Cardigan

Matilde is a sideways long sleeve cardigan with a unique construction. A combination of short rows and raglan shaping ensures that the cardigan fits without pucker. It is worked mostly in garter stitch with a face framing cable to keep the knitting interesting. This design looks best with semi-solid yarn but can handle variegated yarn. The pattern includes a 3/4 sleeve version for those living in warmer climate.

Written and charted directions are given for the stitch pattern. Measurements are given in both centimeters and inches.
