We’ve put together this \u003cb data-path-to-node=\"3\" data-index-in-node=\"144\"\u003eCardigan Kit Pack \u003c\/b\u003eusing the same beautifully rich 'Wine Red' and the speckled 'Almond Tweed' in Sandnes Garn Peer Gynt that is used in the pattern. This burgundy and white combo is a timeless nod to classic style, and because it’s knitted in 100% Norwegian wool, it has that wonderful, sturdy feel that softens into a dream with every single wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"4\"\u003eThe construction of this jacket is as clever as it is satisfying. You’ll start at the top, working the back yoke with short rows to get that perfect, professional shoulder slope while your stripes grow row by row. Once the front and back are joined at the underarms, you’ll work the body back and forth on circular needles. Because it’s a cardigan, you also get to pick up stitches for the front plackets and the neck edge, giving it a structured, high-quality finish that really sets it apart from a standard knit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 data-path-to-node=\"5\"\u003eRhythmic stripes and beautiful details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"6\"\u003eSitting at an intermediate level, the Olga Cardigan Jacket is perfect for those who are confident with the basics and want a project that keeps things interesting.
