NEW RELEASE KNITTING PATTERN -- Oakley Top Down Cardigan - P258
Suitable for the Intermediate - Advanced Knitter
This top down cardigan is worked in stocking stitch with a cluster stitch pattern around the yoke and sleeve cuffs. The pattern comes with 2 Versions, Version 1 for those who like to knit the sleeves flat, so this does mean a little seaming is involved, and Version 2 for knitting the sleeves in round which means no seaming required.

SKILL LEVEL - Intermediate
The pattern has been tech edited, test knitted and graded as being suitable for the INTERMEDIATE KNITTER. Due to the cluster pattern around the yoke I do not recommend this pattern for a beginner knitter.
