Afternoon in Montreux by Nadia Crétin-Léchenne

Craft: Knitting

This pattern is available on Ravelry.  

Afternoon in Montreux is the perfect casual cardigan. With a feminine shape, a V neckline, it combines comfort and elegance, for a very flattering result. It’s knitted in once piece, from the bottom up, seamless. To shape the sleeves, some stitches are picked up along the armholes, worked with short rows and then knitted in the round.
Finally, the use of colors brings a whimsy touch, very welcome to enlighten this timeless classic piece.
