My Granny Cotigan is another take on a popular coat/cardigan construction that is made-up of Granny Squares. The squares joined in panels to create the entire body and sleeves of the cardigan utilizing a continuous Join-As-You-Go method, with no additional ends to weave in. Knitted ribbed cuffs, hem, and shawl collar add a nice finish to this piece. Four large buttons used for the front closure. This cardigan is perfect for using up leftover yarns, combining different colors and making a unique Your Granny Coatigan.
