Notes

As always it is a delight to work in a test for Elizabeth Doherty. Her patterns are so perfect!
And this is no less so. It looks like a simple cardigan, but it is full of details. Best of all the shoulders, fits perfect with her “Set in sleeve” method already published in her book. This pattern even improves them.
And another highlight in this cardigan is the method of knitting the bands. I don’t know if someone else uses this method, but for me it has been a novelty that I think I will use more times. Fitsl perfect
Thanks Elizabeth por invite me to be in the party
And about the yarn, it was a pleasure to work with them.
I knit with two plies of the linen and one ply of the mohair. The cardigan weigh 376 grams
