Scattershot

€12.50

Like a handful of sprinkles scattered over frosting, Scattershot adds a joyful pop of color to your wardrobe. This compound raglan cardigan with a V-neck is worked completely seamlessly from the top down and designed to make the most of every last meter of yarn.

Doubleknit neck and button bands are worked at the same time as the body, eliminating the need to pick up stitches later. The sleeves are completed before the body so there's no guessing how much to set aside — simply knit the hem until your yarn runs out!

With optional bust darts and three sleeve lengths to choose from, Scattershot is endlessly customizable and perfect for stashbusting. Pair a solid base yarn with a tweedy or hand-dyed silk mohair to create a sprinkle-like texture that's irresistibly playful.

The pattern is available in 10 sizes from XS to 6X. Measurements are given in both metric and US units.
