Notes

Initially purchased to make another Lopi, this is a stash buster so might include a colour border, so far a fun pattern to knit, just past the yoke, deciding whether to put in extra sleeve stitches.

Put 6 extra stitches on the hip line so the band would not gape, sewed on 7 buttons and washed and lightly blocked the cardi to make the ribbed yoke sit better when open, did not sew down the collar as I like it both ways and you can fold it over when closed, see pics.
