The Chevron Cardigan features a timeless classic style. Its crew neck button-up design with a slightly puffed sleeve makes it versatile and functional for everyday wear.

The three-color tuck stitches created fabric texture. Any side could be used as a public side. I have chosen the knit side.
Neckline and buttonhole bands were attached on the knitting machine. No time-consuming hand manipulations were involved.

The pattern includes notes for multicolor tuck and 2x2 rib techniques, rib band attachment, finishing, and more.
It also covers detailed descriptions, charts, and schematics with all required measurements.
Knit on the standard gauge Brother machine, but any machine with pattern capabilities will work.
