Notes

This is the perfect winter cardigan. So lucky to be testing Maria’s Pattern.

I got gauge (20 sts x 24 sts) with size 5.5 mm needles.

  • Buttonholes worked as indicated in pattern. Every 12th RS row.

  • Knitted upper body about 2 cm longer

  • Sleeves: After knitting all increases, 12 full repeats of double moss stitch pattern

  • Lower body: worked increases
    differently as described in pattern

  • After joining all lower body parts together I worked one more buttonhole. Followed the pattern and did only 3 repeats of established pattern.

Bought those lovely walnut buttons here.

Just had enough yarn left to make the I-cord edging and to sew on the buttons. Used a total amount of 8 skeins madelinetosh vintage.

First two images show the hoodie after blocking.
