Cardigan ONE - Rib

**GARMENT CONSTRUCTION:** This stylish cardigan is expertly crafted using a seamless design, worked top-down for your convenience. The construction begins with the yoke, which is knitted back and forth until completed. Once the yoke is finished, you will place the sleeves on hold and continue with the body of the cardigan. After the body is complete, you can easily pick up the sleeves and finish them in the round for a polished look. The final touches include the button band and neck band, which are added last for a neat finish. This versatile cardigan allows for easy adjustments in size and length according to your personal preferences, ensuring a tailored fit that suits your style perfectly!

**YARN:** For this project, we recommend using **James C. Brett Pure Wool DK** in the beautiful color DM26. The approximate yarn requirements for various sizes are as follows: **1000 (1100, 1200, 1300, 1350, 1450, 1650)** yards, or **900 (1000, 1100, 1200, 1250, 1350, 1500)** meters. This soft and durable yarn will provide the ideal warmth and comfort for your cozy cardigan.

**NEEDLES:** Use a **4mm long circular needle** for the body and a **long 3.5mm needle** for the button band. For the sleeves, opt for a **4mm short circular needle** or DPNs to achieve the best gauge when knitting in the round.

**GAUGE:** To ensure your cardigan fits perfectly, check your gauge. You will need to achieve a gauge of **20 stitches x 30 rows** over a **4x4” square** using stockinette stitch with 4mm needles.

**SIZES:** This cardigan pattern accommodates a variety of sizes: **XS (S, M1, M2, L, XL, 2XL)**. The garment shown in the example is size L, which showcases the lovely drape and fit of this seamless cardigan.
