This pattern has been in my family for generations, passed on by great-grandmother to my aunt and then finally to me. Unfortunately it’s not possible to know now where or when it was first knitted. The final piece is a timeless raglan cardigan, all in stockinette with cuffs, collar, buttonband and hem in garter stitch. The pattern is easy to adapt and hack, all you have to do is let your imagination fly!
