Signal Hill

CA$12.00

In 1901, the first transoceanic wireless message, “S” in Morse code, was received atop Signal Hill in St. John’s. This set off the inspiration behind this cardigan. It’s top-down and seamless, but the sleeves are worked first, flat and sideways, and with never a dull moment. Each colourwork band is worked in the round and steeked as you go. And since the sweater begins with working colourwork in the round and steeking it, it is a good introductory steek project for first time steekers! After the sleeves are finished, the upper back body is started by bridging the two sleeves, and worked top down while joining  to the sleeves along the raglan lines as you go. The front halves are worked in a similar manner. Then after joining the fronts and back at the underarm like a normal sweater, the remaining body is worked to your desired sweater length.
