Knitting pattern for Copenhagen cardigan, designed by PetiteKnit.
PetiteKnit took over the danish knitting community a few years ago, when she released the basis sweater 'No Frills'. Her minimalistic signature style is also characteristic for this classic cardigan, named after the Danish capital Copenhagen.
It is a slightly cropped cardigan, designed to be worn with a positive ease of approximately 6-11 cm at the bust. Copenhagen is knit flat from the top down with raglan increases, in stockinette stitch, with a vertical rib along the front edges for the button bands. As an extra detail, the Copenhagen Cardigan features inside pockets.
