From designer: “Simple yet stylish, fitted yet comfortable, this figure-flattering cardigan is another great wardrobe addition. The style is worked in an eye-popping explosion of rainbow hues and can be redesigned to create a bespoke garment to call your own. Ribbed sleeves? New stitch pattern? Different neckline? The possibilities are only limited to your imagination.”

10 buttons (1/4 inch)

Pattern includes two photos and detailed schematic.

There is an errata in the hardback copy of this book (it isn’t in the paperback copy as was amended for this print run)
Page 97 Left Front under shape armhole, 4th line down, it says:
Decrease 1 stitch at each end* of the next row. Then decrease 1 stitch at each end* of every 4th row 3 times.
it shouldn’t say each end, it should say armhole edge
So it should read:
Decrease 1 stitch at armhole edge of the next row.
This also applies to the Right Front shape armhole instructions.
