About the Hayfield Bonus DK Ribbed Cardigan Knitting Pattern

Create this stylish cardigan using Sirdar Bonus Double Knit or any double knit yarn with a tension of 28 rows x 22 stitches to 10cm. It has a V neck with full sleeves and uses fisherman's rib throughout to create a lovely texture.

The construction is a traditional one, knitting a back and front with two sleeves and sewing them together. I always find mattress stitch the best way to sew up my garments.

Colour shown is Bright Coral 578. I do not stock this yarn but it is widely available.
