**YARN**: For this cardigan, we recommend using West Yorkshire Spinners, Illustrious yarn in a beautiful Grey tone. Each skein weighs 100g and offers 225m of premium fiber. You will need approximately 850 (950, 1000, 1180, 1350, 1500) meters depending on the size you choose to knit.

**NEEDLES**: Gather your knitting tools! You will need 3.5mm and 4mm long circular needles for the body, hemline, and buttonband. For the sleeves, cuffs, and pockets, opt for shorter circular needles or double-pointed needles (DPNs) in the same sizes for a seamless knitting experience.

**GAUGE**: Achieve the perfect fit with a gauge of 21 stitches x 28 rows over a 4x4”/10x10 cm square in a textured pattern, using 4mm needles. Always make a gauge swatch to ensure your cardigan turns out just right!

**SIZES**: This versatile pattern comes in sizes XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL). The sample size is M, designed to be worn with 6-8” of positive ease, providing comfort and style. The top-down construction makes it easy to adjust and accommodate larger sizes as needed, allowing for a custom fit that flatters any body type.

**DIMENSIONS**: The cardigan length measures 54 (54, 55, 55, 56, 56) cm / 21.25 (21.25, 21.7, 21.7, 22, 22)” across sizes, while the bust size ranges from 105 (115, 125, 135, 145, 158) cm / 41.5 (45.3, 49.2, 53, 57, 62)“.
