Uzu is a paisley colorwork cardigan using amirisu Swing.
The large color work is fresh. It is knitted with springy Swing, so it is easy to knit colorwork (although this pattern is quite difficult for this design), and it keeps its shape easily and looks nice when worn.
This garment has many features, such as long floats on the back and steeking, making it a project with some engaging challenges.
Cast on stitches for body with Crochet Cast On method, and add stitches for steek in the center front. Then, join in the round to work from the bottom up. Sleeves are also worked in the round from the bottom up and joined with body at underarm, and then, worked up to neck with decreases. Unraveling the CO stitches, pick up the stitches and work rib for the hem, collar, and cuff. Then, cut the steek. Pick up stitches from the edge and work front band.
