Your OONIQUE Kit
Everything you need in one box – the right number of yarn skeins and the digital pattern.
Start knitting your next YARNYOURSELF cardigan with our knitting kit.
The Selma Zipper is worked from the top down in half brioche stitch. The edges are worked in garter stitch throughout. Please note that in some tutorials, half brioche is described the other way around, meaning that the right-side row in this pattern may be referred to as the wrong-side row elsewhere.
You begin by knitting the back piece, followed by the shoulders. Once the armholes have been shaped, the shoulders are joined to the back piece. The body is then worked flat in rows. The collar is picked up and knitted at the end.
If you knit the Selma Zipper, we'd love to see your project! Tag @YARNYOURSELF on Instagram or use #selmazipper.
