This is more of an un-pattern which I designed and posted on my blog last year.

A long cable band is knitted and then turned on its side to form a collar. Stitches are then picked up along the side of the collar and a simple top down raglan cardigan is worked from there.
The button placements help the cardigan sit properly.

If you need a smaller or larger size, adjust the length of the band and then adjust the number of stitches accordingly.

It is a fun knit and nice to wear. I have had lots of compliments while wearing it :-)
