Notes

Beautifully written pattern, easy to follow for someone with little cardigan experience.

Colorway teal is a bit greener than expected, and darker than in the pics.

Knit patt to 1.5” below underarm, then 1.5” ribbing. JSSBO bind off for cuffs and hem.

Used larger needle for button band and neckline ribbing, and traditional chain bindoff.

Next time, do stockinette selvedge to make it easier to pick up stitches for button bands and neckline ribbing.

Now to find some cute buttons!
