An elegant top down, seamless one piece cardigan made with the fabulous Habu Textiles Bamboo and Silk Wrapped Stainless Steel yarns. The tailored shaping provides an excellent fit and the numerous styling options express the exquisite quality of this knit fabric.

Eleven Sizes provided in the pattern.

Alternate Habu Yarns Also Suitable to use with the Silk Stainless Steel (A-20/21):
TBA

Yarn: 2 threads of the Habu Textiles XS-45 Bamboo held with 1 thread of Habu Textiles A-20 Silk Stainless Steel yarn in Stocking Stitch.

Note: I prefer the Habu Silk Stainless Steel (A-20/21) in this design as it lends a robust body to the garment while retaining the drape of the Bamboo (bamboo yarns like to GROW!). I believe the combination of these 2 yarns provides a excellent form and drape for this particular design.

Yardage Suggestion:
Bamboo (this is for both the 2 threads used): (2100, 2250, 2450, 2550) (2650, 2800, 2900, 3050) (3150, 3300, 3400) yards / (1920, 2060, 2240, 2330) (2420, 2560, 2650, 2790) (2880, 3020, 3100) meters

Silk stainless (this if for 1 thread): (1050, 1120, 1200, 1250) (1300, 1350, 1425, 1500) (1550, 1600, 1700) yards,
