DESIGN OVERVIEW
The warm and cosy texture of the seeded rib stitch creates the kind of knitwear you think of when you first feel a chill in the air. Full, playful balloon sleeves create a contrast with the neat finish of the double knitting button band to make the Fall In cardigan the ultimate throw-on.

METHOD
The cardigan is knitted top down, increasing stitches at the front for the v-neck at the same time as the raglan increases.
Once the yoke increases are complete, the sleeves are put on hold and it continues down the body. After finishing the body, rejoin the yarn to the sleeves and work in the round to the cuff. The button band is attached to the edge of the cardigan as it is worked in double knitting.

SIZES
2XS (XS, S, M, L) XL (2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL)
The seeded rib stitch used in this pattern is incredibly stretchy, so a positive ease of 4”/10cm is recommended.
