Square Cardi - unicoloured and coloured squares
Square Cardi - unicoloured and coloured squares
#SquareCardi is a cardigan created in collaboration with Ingrid Bergtun. If you share pictures of your cardigan, please use the hashtag #squarecardi as well as tag @easyasknit and @ingridbergtun. We would love to share your process!
#SquareCardi can be made both as a unicoloured version or a version with coloured squares. In order to make the squares in different colours you will need to use the technique “intarsia”. If you are a lower intermediate level knitter (who knows the basic techniques) this project is the perfect opportunity for you to learn intarsia! If you are a beginner, we recommend that you make the unicoloured version without the squares first as this version is easier to make. You will still achieve a beautiful result at the end and learn different techniques as you make the cardigan. In your order confirmation you will find a pattern for both the unicoloured version of the cardigan as well as the version with the coloured squares.

I suggest an adjustment to the unicoloured square cardigan. So you can knit the sleeve in 1 piece instead of two and the front and back in one piece instead of 2. Because its in 1 colour there is no need to knit it in different pieces.
Thank you so much for the review!
We will for sure take your suggestion into considerations. The reason we have made it like that, is because of the idea to make each of the pieces in different colours, but each piece in unicolour without the stripes and squares. If you like you can adjust the pattern so that you can knit the sleeve in one piece and - or just write us an email at support@easyasknit.dk and we will help you with it
Happy knitting!
