In this tutorial I walk you through the techniques used to knit My First Cardigan, a pattern by Vanessa Ewing, brought to us by Kraemer Yarns. This is a great first sweater for new sweater knitters.
I’m still getting the kinks worked out in the new studio, thanks for your patience. 🙂
You can get the pattern here.
Kraemer Perfection Sport yarn is available here.
The shawl on the mannequin is Escalator Wrap by Theresa Schabes. You can see details on my Ravelry project page.
