This little cardigan was started by my Mum. When she struggled with the raglan shaping it was posted to me - I had sent her a copy of the pattern so served me right!

Tried to follow the pattern but got confused after the raglan shaping. Reading the comments left by fellow Ravelry people helped a lot. The tip about how to tackle the neck decreases and how to decrease around the neck band so it lays flat were just what I needed.

Picking up the stitches down the front edges is best estimated as you go along - using the exact number in the pattern is unlikely to be right (unless you are lucky).

Glad it’s finished and happy with the outcome despite the trial and error approach. :-)
