Gloriana is a truly regal garment, richly embellished with textured
lace and lovely details. The patterning and feminine shaping of this
garment lend it the elegance of another age. Named "Gloriana" after the
Tudor queen, Elizabeth I, it evokes a feeling of Renaissance charm.
Feel like a queen when wearing this beautiful cardigan!
The peplum is worked in one piece from bottom edge to waistband. The
waistband is then knit sideways to the peplum, attaching stitches as
waistband is worked. The bodice is picked up from the waistband and
worked in one piece to the armholes, then divided for fronts and back.
Sleeves are knit flat, then sewn to garment. Front bands and collar are
worked last. Sample shown in Size 1.
Recommended for Advanced knitters.
