Luksus Poppis Jakken
The cardigan is knitted from the bottom up, with raglan decreases. The body has popcorns, and the pattern is worked twice; the sleeves have 4 popcorns on the outside of each sleeve. The sleeves have an I-cord cast-on edge, and the front bands are picked up and knitted in the same ribbing as the body. Finally the neckband is knitted the same way, before the bands and neckband are finished with I-cord for a neat edge.
It is very important to knit a gauge swatch to find the needle size that gives you the right gauge, so the popcorn pattern comes out right.
