Notes

Made with short sleeves, for a spring baby. The only other modification I made was to work short rows in the garter buttonband a couple of times, to allow a little more give, as the buttonband tends to pull a little where it turns the corner between the raglan line and the body line.

I can’t get over the difference in the two DK weight yarns I used for these two sweaters -- almost identical gauge and finished sizes, and yet one weighs half of what the other cardi does.
