My carré cardigan is finished.
Again an unusual construction, in one piece and nearly completely seamless (only a little sewing at the wrong side for the pockets). It is worked top down, starting with a provisional cast on at the top of the center section. All waist shaping is done in this center stockinette section.
The large bands are worked all around – hence the name carré (square) – and hide 2 pockets.I used 3 (or more?) circular needles to work them.
The sleeve inset is based on the contiguous sleeve method developed by Susie Myers, SusieM on Ravelry (http://www.ravelry.com/people/SusieM)

Oh, thanks. It is very cosy. But right now it is toooo hot here to enjoy it. But I’m ready for autumn 😀
