I knitted this cardigan in preparation for winter, it is super warm and sooo squishy! My favourite stitch is fisherman’s rib, it makes everything so squishy and warm – even if it is a bit of a yarn eater! I would say this is an intermediate pattern because it is fisherman’s rib, however a confident beginner could definitely give it a go! (For one of my testers it was their first knitted garment!) The cardi is made to be oversized and slouchy so it’s nice and snuggly in the evening, this does mean it can slide off your shoulders slightly, if that’s an issue I would recommend adding the button band (instructions at the end of the pattern). The sizes for this pattern go from 30 inches to 60 inches at 4 inch intervals, with a 4-8 inch positive ease.
