Montevideo Cardigan by Luciana Lopez

Craft: Knitting

Montevideo is a cute little raglan sleeve cardigan with a simple shape and construction.
It has a beautiful herringbone detail running at the raglan and placket seam. Montevideo can be knitted in either Sami (as the sample) or Marla yarns, depending if you are looking for a solid or colorful style.

It is knitted top down and the pattern includes two lengths for a cropped or longer body. It is anyway very easy to adjust the length to your desired fit.

The bright green sample is a size 2 (short) knitted in Sami color Jade.

The pink (size 3 long) and green (size 1 short) samples are knitted in Alpaca Heather in colors Fresco and Tahiti.
