Purple Coke Cardigan by K. Schneider
The Purple Coke Cardigan is the third design in the Purple Coke collection. It is designed for the yarns ITO Urugami and ITO Tetsu. If you'd like a warmer version you can use ITO Sensai instead of ITO Tetsu or if you want a softer version ITO Shio instead of ITO Tetsu.
Beginning with the neckband, the cardigan is worked back and forth in rows from the top down. The body is finished with a ribbed hem. The front bands are picked up and knitted after the body is completed. The raglan sleeves are worked in the round and finished with ribbed cuffs.
