Kallias Kit | Fonty

Kallias is not just any cardigan, it's the one you'll instinctively grab time and time again. With its relaxed open front style, this cardigan is effortlessly chic and beautifully cosy.

This garment is also worked in a winning way: seamlessly from the top down. This means you can try on your cardigan as you knit, ensuring a fit that's just right for you.

Maureen is wearing Shade 004.

Construction notes:

Knitting starts with the back part of the neckband. Stitches are then picked up from the long edge of the neckband to work the back part of the yoke first. Increases along the slanted shoulder “seam” are worked on both RS and WS rows. Once the final back width is reached, the back is worked back and forth in slip stitch ribbing to underarm.

Stitches for the fronts (left and right front) are picked up from the shoulder “seam” to work the fronts back and forth to underarm. At underarm both fronts and back are joined to work the body top down back and forth to the short row shaped bottom hem.

As the front ribbing is built in, there is no finishing required. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the arm openings to work the sleeves in Stockinette stitch top down in rounds to the cuffs.
