This cardigan should have been called cabin stewardess (Kahytsjomfru), as a counterpart to the seaman’s sweater. Seamen’s sweaters have nubs – this one has flowers and is therefore more feminine. But, all of a sudden, in a slip of the tongue, it was called Jomfruhummer (Hermit crab).
The model is worked from the rib and up. The sleeves are also worked from below and are hereafter incorporated within the flower yoke part. Look how to do it here. Decreases are made on the shoulders, while you work back and forth. It is a whole new way of working a sleeve cap. The sleeve cap is sewn on at the top, and the armholes also get sewn.
You can choose to knit the short model or the model with A-line shape.
The button holes are a small challenge, but it is important to learn something new. It helps to shut off your brain, and do exactly as described …
