If you would like to buy the full DIY Kit for the Mohair Top-Down Cardigan you can do so here.

This cardigan is worked flat from the neck to the armholes, then stitches are placed on hold for the sleeves while the body is worked flat to the bottom edge. When the body is complete, the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuff. Length measurements of the body are given from shoulder to hem.

Top-Down Cardigan is a  sumptuously soft and chunky cardigan knit in our Mohair So Soft yarn. As the name denotes, it’s knit top-down in one piece with familiar raglan shaping and, of course, we have video tutorials to walk you through any new-to-you techniques. It is knit seamlessly and you can easily adjust the length by adding more rows at the end.
