Pyramid Cardigan is a follow up of my pattern Pyramid tee. The cardigan is unlike your usual cardigan. It is fully reversible and can also be worn back to front, giving you a total of 4 different options. It is worked seamlessly from the top down, making it easy to adjust the length.
This cardigan is designed with inclusive sizing in mind, designed to fit actual bust sizes from 76 cm / 30 inches to 171 cm / 67 inches. Measurements are given in both cm and inches.

Finished Measurements
Bust circumference: 78 (89, 99.5, 108.5, 121.5) {130, 143, 149.5, 162.5, 171} cm / 30.75 (35, 39.25, 42.75, 47.75) {51.25, 56.25, 58.75, 64, 67.25} inches
How to choose your size: Measure a sweater in a similar style in your closet or add the amount of desired ease to your actual bust measurement, pick the size closest to that number. For example, if you want 5 cm / 2 inches of positive ease and your bust measurement is 94 cm / 37 inches, you should pick size 3.
