A-B Cardigan

Lace cardigan, size M/L (GB 12/14, EUR 40/42).

The title for this lovely lightweight garment was
inspired by a Dutch saying: Once you’ve said A you
must say B (always finish what you’ve started).
The body is knitted flat and seamlessly on a circular
needle in one piece, with a double button band,
which will be folded in half and sewn to the back
along the edge and around each buttonhole.
The sleeves are knit on double-pointed needles
(dpns) with a mock seam.
All parts will be joined on 1 circular needle to make
almost invisible raglan decreases. Some Kitchener
stitching under the armholes, and that’s all.

You will need approximately 250 grams (about 1800 m) semi solid, strong lace yarn, like Malabrigo or Madeline Tosh, or other lovely hand-dyed lace yarn. I used Kaalund Classic Two yarn. Other alternatives would be Evilla 8/1 or Jamieson&Smith 2 ply Shetland wool. Because of the amount of work that goes into this cardigan it deserves the best yarn you can get.

If you find any problems with this pattern, please let me know.
