There are four separate hand techniques on this one small cardigan: bobble stitch, cable stitch, embroidered rosebuds, and a ribbon closure. Bobble stitch requires you to work five stitches into one and then knit them back together, creating a raised cluster that takes more yarn and more attention than a plain row. Cable stitch requires holding stitches on a spare needle while you work others, crossing them over to create the twist. Embroidered rosebuds are worked in satin stitch after the knitting is complete. Each of these techniques takes practice. Someone did all four of them on a cardigan for a baby, for one occasion. The flower-shaped buttons are the final warm touch, chosen with obvious pleasure.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA genuinely extraordinary small garment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"caitiedid","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44084111114374,"sku":null,"price":105.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0657\/5960\/8966\/files\/DSC_2693.jpg?v=1782128241","url":"https:\/\/checkout.caitiedid.shop\/products\/vintage-hand-knitted-pink-bobble-baby-cardigan-rosebuds-1970s-80s","provider":"caitiedid","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
