A cute little cropped Dolman cardigan that is knit sideways from cuff to cuff to show off self-striping yarns.

Neckband and buttonbands are worked from the center back neck downwards and then joined with picked up stitches for the bottom ribbing. Stitches for sleeve cuffs are picked up and the cuffs are worked in the round.

Notions: Two 11/4” buttons

Finished Length: 161/2 (17, 171/2, 173/4, 181/4, 181/2)”

The pattern is sized for 6 (!) sizes and comes with detailed schematics and an Appendix for special techniques used in this pattern. They are: a One-Row Buttonhole, the Knitted Cast-On for “growing” your sleeve to the full body length, the Cable Cast-On for the buttonhole and the Provisional Crochet Cast-On for the neckband. You are always welcome to replace these techniques with your own favorite one. :)
