I liked the pullover version so much that I wanted to convert it into a cardigan. This one is worked top down, back and forth for the body, with sleeves knitted in the round. Ribbing creates texture in the body, and the sleeves and hem have a scalloped edge. You can add as many buttons as you wish, as the i-cord edging runs from one bottom front around the neck to the other and buttonholes are made as you go. Buttons are 1” and the model’s buttons are custom-made. Color for this one is Sequoia Heather.
