Filmed on location along the spectacular Oregon coast, in Cardigan Details master knitter Meg Swansen concentrates on knitting a circular Norwegian style dropped-shoulder, scooped neck cardigan. The body is knitted in the round from lower edge to shoulder, with a steek up the center front. The sleeves are knitted from the cuffs, and there is a gentle Norwegian color-pattern at the tops of the sleeves and body. The armholes and center-front are cut open, sleeves sewn in and the border knitted on. Techniques shown include: casting on and k1b, p1 rib, increasing, short rows and wrapping, knitting-back backward, steeks, color pattern knitting, machine stitching, cutting, attaching sleeves and all aspects of knitting the garter-stitch cardigan border directly onto the garment in one continuous piece (no sewing): knit-up ratio, mitered corners, neck shaping, one-row buttonholes, two-stitch I-Cord Cast Off and finishing the cut edge.

It's OK
I usually really like her DVD's...however in this one I did learn several techniques but this sweater is NOT my style. I use for the techniques only.If this sweater is something that you like you will also benefit from thedesign.

EXCELLENT techniques for steeked cardigans
I love this DVD and enjoy Meg's techniques and her explanations. It feels like a friend is in your home explaining and helping you knit a great cardigan.The knitting up and garter stitch around the cardigan front and neck ALONE is worth the price of this DVD, the other tips are just frosting on the cake (but very helpful). Since I can't afford her knitting camp, this DVD is like having a private lesson, and a free refresher whenever I want. Huge thanks to Meg Swansen from a person that has been knitting only three years.

Great Techniques
I agree with the previous reviewer that the cardigan in the DVD is not to my taste but the DVD focuses very little on the design and knitting of the sweater. Instead, this DVD centers primarily around the techniques of cardigans including steeking, finishing edges, neck and front button bands, etc. If you have never steeked before or would like to see some expert tips demonstrated, this is an excellent reference!

Knitting DVD about a pretty cardigan.
Another all time Meg Swansen knitting DVD. Meg's a great instructor and her company still takes phone calls when you get stuck.
