Worked with 3 strands of yarn held tog throughout (2 strands wool & 1 strand mohair).

Also requires six 1” / 25 mm buttons.

A symphony of soft lines. Slim shaping, and ample texture makes this 3/4 length cardigan an absolute essential for home and office. While set-in sleeves and collar complete the look, the simple pattern of knit and purl stitches make it a project that cam be accomplished over a long weekend. The “Big Easy” first appeared in the Fall ‘97 Issue of Family Circle Easy Knitting magazine as Chic Car Coat).
