Description 
The Nigrum Cardigan is a stylish, classic cardigan that pairs well with everything and is incredibly beautiful and elegant in its simplicity. 
 
The Nigrum Cardigan has a feminine touch with its wide boat neckline, gently shaped with short rows, raglan sleeves featuring a small lace pattern, and subtle balloon sleeves. 
 
The cardigan is knitted from the top down, allowing you to adjust the length of both the sleeves and the body.

Materials 
175/200 (200) 200 (250) 250 (250) 275/300 (300) g of fine silk mohair. You can choose to knit with hand-dyed silk mohair from @detlillefarveri (420 m/50 g) or one of the many other fine silk mohair qualities available on the market, such as Soft Silk Mohair from Knitting for Olive (225 m/25 g), Önling No. 10 from Önling (210 m/25 g), Silk Mohair from Isager Yarn (212 m/25 g) or similar qualities.
 
You will need to knit with 2 strands held together.
 
Note! The number after the slash indicates the amount you should choose if you are knitting with hand-dyed yarn, which usually comes in 50 g skeins or if you choose to knit with 2 different colors held together.
 
The cardigan in the photo is knitted with 2 strands of hand-dyed silk mohair from @detlillefarveri in the color Succulent. 
 
In addition to yarn, you will need 6-7 buttons, approximately 12 mm in size, and 4 stitch markers.
 
Recommended Needles 
The cardigan is knitted in stockinette stitch back and forth on 4 mm circular needles (80 cm) with 2 strands of fine silk mohair. 
 
The ribbing is knitted on 3 mm circular needles (80 cm).
 
I recommend the Magic Loop method for knitting the sleeves and sleeve cuffs. If you do not use the Magic Loop method, you will also need 4 mm circular needles (40 cm) and 3 mm circular needles (40 cm).
 
Gauge 
19 sts x 27 rows = 10 x 10 cm back and forth on 4 mm needles.
