Notes

Finally cast on for this one :-)
It’s such a quick and fast knit. The pattern is very straight forward and easy to follow.

Love the colour very much, it’s a gorgeous grey with a little purple in it.

Gauge: 17 x 21 --> Didn’t want to go up needle sizes because the fabric is then too loose for my taste, so casting on for size M to get something in between S and M.

Mods:

  • Made a buttonhole every 24th row. I’m using 7 gorgeous buttons from buttonalia.
  • No pocket
  • Longer sleeves for my monkey arms: knitted them inside out in st. st. (inside out) for about 44 cm then made the hem just as described in pattern pattern.
  • all bind offs made with this method

I’m sure this cardigan will be one of my favourites to wear this autumn and winter!
