It's right, this is a NO PATTERN cardigan, because
I didn't have a pattern when I started it, I didn't even know it was going to
be a cardigan. I used 4 balls (each 50 gr) of mohair - Sinfonie by Stahl, color
3331 and #8 needles. For collar and other ribbing I used multi color from Red
Heart, don't remember the name though.
Mohair is more "furry" on the wrong side, that's why I used the wrong
side as the right side.
Cast on 35 sts in multi colored yarn- 1p 1k for 10 rows
switch to mohair, 1 row knit, 1 row purl until 70 rows in mohair are completed,
ending with a knit row.
71. row: cast off 10 sts purlwise and purl to end of row = 25 sts
72. row: k23, 2tog = 24 sts
73. row: 2tog, purl to end = 23 sts
74. row: k20, 3tog = 21 sts
75. row: 2tog, purl to end = 20 sts
76. row: knit across
77. row: 2tog, purl to end = 19 sts
78. row: knit across
79. row: purl across
repeat row 78 and 79 5 more times and cast off. Makes 99 rows including ribbing.
