Notes

Testing this beautiful sweater design for Jenn!
Fell instantly in love with the yoke. The pattern is written very clearly.

I made a few modifications to the original design (which I love).
But since I wanted to use stash yarn only and needed a cardigan to go with all kinds of outfit, I ended up using only two differnt colours of Lett Lopi yarn.
And because I tend to wear jumpers less often than cardigans and I decided to make a cardigan version this time.
I knitted it in the round, steeking afterwards and picking up the stitches for the button band.
I knitted a normal 1x1 rib collar since looked better with cardigan with ribbed button bands.

I haven’t taken it off since it’s been finished!
