NOTE: Photo shown at left is a modified version. Original pattern is for a cardigan.

The pattern calls for 26 colours; some require as little as five (5) grams however. The body is worked in stranded technique in the round; front opening and the armholes are steeked.

The finished garment measures:

  • total length 57 cm
  • bust 104 cm

You will also need seven (7) buttons.

The pattern does not list a total yardage needed. Use yarn requirements for similar-sized cardigans to estimate.
