Jeweled Rib is an elegant scoop-necked raglan cardigan that is worked top-down, seamlessly, back and forth, with the Sleeve portions worked in the round. The body begins in stockinette stitch, then transitions through three different eyelet lace ribbing sections. The sleeves are worked in simple stockinette stitch, and extend a little farther than the wrists. Please choose a bust size that allows for about 1 – 2” of positive ease. Make as many buttonholes as you wish.

I’ve accidentally reversed Charts B and C! The written instructions are correct, but Chart C is where Chart B should be. I’ll fix this as soon as I can.
