This pattern is so very simple, with a double breasted front and stylish cowl neckline. Closure is unique as the buttons are near the shoulders, and the fronts are buttoned in a gathering way to add to the cowl neckline. It’s really very simple, and very fun to play around with.

Simple pockets using contrasting color yarn are added for some interest and comfort.

You’ll need to know how to:
knit
purl
YO
M1
M1P (for largest 2 sizes only)
K2tog
SSK
as well as the provisional cast on.

For ease of knitting and wear, the cardigan is seamless, worked from the top down in a comfortable raglan sleeve, with the pocket linings and cowl neck added last.

There was a typo in the pattern in the body increase. Below the picture, where it says “Repeat rows 1 and 2, 18 more times (for a total of 20 rows).” It should read: “Repeat rows 1 and 2, 9 more times (for a total of 20 rows).”
