    About

    Pattern Richard Poppleton 2625 from 1980’s. takes 2-3 evenings to complete. I sometimes knit the body as one piece to armholes, rather than sew pieces together. Knitted plain version in random dyed wool for nice effect even quicker. Booties are Debbie Bliss from Blankets Bears and Booties book 2013. I LOVE these and have knitted about 20 pairs.

      I love this basic cardi pattern! I'm hopeless at picking up stitches for the borders - do you knit it separately or do you knit the garter stitch border as you're going along?

        Hello Anne. This pattern has the garter stitches h boarder included so easy and quick. I also knit it as one piece, back and sides cast on and knit to arm division. Saves sewing up and keeps everything the same.
