Make this cardigan in a light-weight yarn, approx. 100 meters / yards or more / 50 grams. (10 skeins) You can also use 2 (different) type of yarns. In that case, choose a combination that doesn’t add too much weight to this cardigan.
It’s a one size cardigan, that will fit most of us, but is specialy designed for women with relatively small hips and pronounced bust. If necessary: the pattern is completely worked out in charts which will make adjusting it to smaller or bigger size quite easy by using a smaller or bigger needle. The models in the pictures have european size M and L/XL.
The cardigan is designed without buttonholes. Wearing it with a small belt or broche, makes it look more feminin. The 3/4 lenght sleeves contributes to that feminine look and feel.
