Product details
As implied by the name "Hitofude", meaning a single brush stroke in Japanese, this open front cardigan with an all-over lace pattern is worked in one "yarn stroke" - a continuous strand without cutting the yarn.
The yarn stroke starts from the upper body and sleeves which worked together in a rectangular piece, then moves to the lower body, where the lace pattern increases evenly, creating a gentle drape.
Refer to the schematic on pattern page 5 before selecting a size. Note that the garment fits with very little ease across the back and around the upper arms.
The pattern is available in English and Japanese.

I was a little nervous about attempting what looked like a very complicated pattern but it was such a reasonable price that I thought I would give it a try and I am so glad I did. This pattern is so well organized and carefully illustrated that I immediately regained my confidence and set about ordering the yarn. I am down to the waist and it is true that the arm holes will be small but my daughter is very slim and it will not be a problem. The lace pattern is very easy and a simple repeat but looks most impressive. I would highly recommend it. p.s. I would love to send a photo of the work in progress but I don't know how. sorry.
