With lightweight wools, Robin Hansen designed a mother and daughter cardigan set to span the seasons. Her cozy sweaters feature subtle spring-like colors as a reminder of the flowers soon to spring. She used traditional circular techniques and finishes to complete this timeless pair.

You will need 5 colours of yarn. Knit in the round; the front, armholes, and neck are steeked. There are a few rounds in which you will need to carry 3 colours. The sleeves are worked from the wrist ribbing up then bound off, and seamed to the body after the steek is opened. Button and neck bands can either be sewn or knitted on.
