Preparing the KAL
19:53
Take a closer look at the cardigan (plus a bonus pullover version) to begin. Then Bristol helps you choose your yarn and colors, and how to find your perfect fit. Afterwards, get your needles clicking by knitting a gauge swatch.
Pocket Steeks
21:04
Ready to dive in? Begin by knitting the sweater pockets. You'll get your first taste of steeking and colorwork knitting.
Knitting the Body
6:48
After the pockets are done, cast on the bottom of your sweater and get ready for some relaxing knitting.
Sleeves
3:45
Take a break from knitting the body of your sweater to work on the sleeves. You'll see how to customize the shaping to best fit your arms.
Joining the Yoke
12:50
Bring all the sweater pieces together by adding the sleeves and giving the yoke some shaping. (At this point it might start to look like an actual sweater!)
Yoke Colorwork
8:37
Now for the fun part: knitting the colorwork yoke! Get Bristol's best tips on color dominance, reading colorwork charts with shaping, and binding off that neck.
Steeking
13:46
It's time to make the cut! Find out how to prepare the steek and, once you're done cutting, carefully cut and secure it. (No worries, you've got nothing to fear here, especially with Bristol by your side.)
Finishing
22:26
Lastly, just a few finishing touches before your cardigan is ready to wear. Learn how to pick up stitches for the button band, knit buttonholes, and give your sweater a final blocking.
