Notes on Pattern
This simple long cardigan pattern has limited amount of shaping - just at the top of the neck and at the armholes.
Due to the beauty of knitting it looks like it is shaped at the bottom but it isn’t! Which is why I love knitting so much, simple stitches and simple patterns create something unique.
