This top-down seamless Cardigan has a knitted Dragon image on the back and the word Dragon in Chinese using the duplicate stitch on the sleeve. I used grosgrain ribbon on the button bands then used snaps. The buttons on the outside are just for show and Pizzazz. Therefore no buttonholes but you can make buttonholes with buttons if preferred.
In Asian Culture the Dragon can symbolize many things such as Power, Strength, Energy and Intelligence. It is the most potent symbol of Good Luck.

Any DK Weight Yarn can be used as long as the gauge is correct.
