MIKA - pdf -

MIKA is knitted from the exquisite N°11 by Herzfasern in the color Emerald. This casual, sleeveless knitted cardigan feels so soft and smooth, you’ll never want to take it off. Our vest features a round neckline shaped with German short rows. For the shoulder increases, we used the Contiguous Method by Susie Myers. All edgings are worked in a k1, p1 rib pattern.
