Notes

I used shades of grey (for MC) and purple (for CC) by John Arbon Textile
Here is how I divide them

MC1 - Rounds 1-41 (yoke chart)
MC2 - Round 42 (yoke chart) - Round 10 (Lower Body Chart)
MC3 - Roudns 11-52 (Lower Body Chart)
MC4 - Rounds 53-94
MC5 - Rounds 95-125

CC1 - Rounds 1-33 (Yoke chart)
CC2 - Rounds 34-66 (Yoke chart)
CC3 - Rounds 67 (Yoke chart) - 27 (Lower Body chart)
CC4 - Rounds 28-61 (Lower Body Chart)
CC5 - Rounds 62-95
CC6 - Rounds 95-125

Neckband was knitted with MC1
Right button band knitted with MC5 and MC4
Left button band knitted with MC3 and MC2

I used KBN 25 for inside pocket liner

My cardigan has final measurements
A -120 cm
B - 87 cm
C - 46 cm
D - 10 cm
E - 7 cm
F - 28 cm
G - 38 cm
H - 4,5 cm
I - 21 cm
J - 41 cm
K - 4 cm
L - 11,5 cm
M - 35 cm

I decide to add only three buttons, but bigger size. Bigger buttons require larger button holes and larger button bands. I added extra 5 rows to each button band
