This pattern was initially published in the June 2008 Smart Knitter newsletter. Due to popular demand, it is now available through Weaverknits!

A mix of Renaissance patterning and modern silhouette, this easy-to-wear, comfortable, machine-washable cardigan is perfect alone or over a tank or tee. It’s a fast knit, and the slip-stitch bodice pattern only uses one color at a time!

Sized for 32 (36, 40, 44, 48, 52) inch bust. The cardigan is meant to fit with less than 1 inch of ease; however, the cotton does stretch. If you would like a cardigan for layering, make the size up from your bust size. The model has a slightly less than 32 inch bust and is wearing the 32 inch size.
