The Honey V-cardi is worked seamlessly from top-down. You start with working the back piece, and then picking up stitches for the shoulders. When both of the shoulders are finished, you cast on stitches for the front piece. The front and back piece are joined under the armhole, and the rest of the slipover are worked in rounds with a textured pattern. You pick up stitches for the sleeves, and they are worked as a textured pattern in round. To finish the V-cardi, you pick up stitches along the edges of the cardigan, and work a double knitted button band. The cardigan is worked with a diagram, except for the ribbing at the ends. The rib is worked *k1 in the back loop only, p1*. The Honey V-cardi is worked in one thread Tilia together with one thread Morganite Merino Silk, or other yarn with the same gauge.. This yarn combination gives a lux and warm slipover.
Feel free to make a gauge swatch to make sure the slipover will fit nicely. Please notice that the gauge is measured in textured pattern after rinsed. I recommend trying the cardigan on while knitting it.
This pattern is long, and some people like to read through everything before starting. Please do, but my biggest recommendation is to read this pattern paragraph for paragraph, sentence for sentence, and suddenly! You’re done with your V-cardi.

Sizing
Honey V-cardi is designed to have a positive ease of approx.15 - 25 cm.
It is somewhat oversized, but feel free to choose a size smaller than you usually do if you are in doubt or want a more snug fit. I measure 93 cm around my chest, and have knitted my cardigan as a size S. This gives me a positive ease of 25 cm.
