Helga Cardigan by Helga Isager

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry.

The cardigan is worked from the top down with raglan increases. All sizes begin with the same number of stitches, but on the larger sizes more raglan increases are made. As the cardigan is worked top down, it is easy to adjust both size and length.
