The pattern is low on sewing.

You create a back shoulder panel . Onto this you create the large sweeping semicircle which wraps around the body culminating in an overlap at the front. . The sleeves are made separately and sewn on afterwards.

The design is perhaps more of a summer jacket than a cardigan and with it being very open at the front, the most important measurement is across the back.

The pattern caters for:
Chest = 26 Inches (13” across the back)
Med = 32 inches (16” across the back)
Large = 38 inches (19” across the back)
XLarge = 44 inches (22” across the back)

You need to be familiar with front and back loop stitches.

You will need to large sized buttons at the end to close up the neck when wearing the garment.
