Reagan by Isabell Kraemer

Reagan is a lovely wrap cardigan you can throw on over casual outfits or your favorite dress. Feminine lace pattern combined with long sleeves and different styling options (see pattern on Ravelry for photos).  Yo may view or purchase the pattern from the designer by clicking here.

This pattern has an interesting construction.  The upper shoulder/back part is worked sideways back and forth in plain Stockinette stitch from a provisional cast-on. Stitches are then joined to knit the first sleeve in the round down to the cuff. Then the second sleeve is worked from the provisional cast-on in the round down to the cuff. After that body stitches are picked up from the long side of the back piece to work the fronts and lower back in Harebell Lace to the final length. I-cord finishing is worked last.

We knitted this in Alpaca Merino Light, which is a soft blend of alpaca and Falklands Merino wool.
