If you love this modern cardigan design but prefer a more classic style, don't forget to explore the "DK version" available in my shop! :)

**GARMENT CONSTRUCTION:** This stunning cardigan is expertly knitted in one seamless piece from the top down, allowing for a smooth and hassle-free crafting experience. The body is knitted flat, while the sleeves are added later, picked up and worked in the round for a polished finish.

**YARN:** For this project, I recommend using Knitcraft Leader of the Pac yarn, which is an Aran weight. Each skein weighs 100g and measures 169 meters. You'll need approximately 500g to 900g, translating to about 850m to 1500m of yarn, depending on the size you choose (500 (550, 600, 700, 800, 900)g / 850 (950, 1000, 1180, 1350, 1500)m).

**NEEDLES:** To create this beautiful cardigan, you will need 5mm long circular needles for the body, hemline, and button band. For the cuffs and pockets, a shorter circular needle or DPNs will work perfectly.

**GAUGE:** Achieve the desired fit by maintaining a gauge of 16 stitches x 24 rows for a 4x4"/10x10 cm square in Stockinette stitch. Accurate gauge is essential for the overall look and fit of your cardigan.

**SIZES:** This versatile cardigan comes in a range of sizes: XS (S, M, L, XL, 2XL), with the sample size being M. It’s designed to be worn with 6-8 inches of positive ease, providing a cozy yet stylish fit.

**DIMENSIONS:** The finished dimensions of the cardigan are as follows: LENGTH: 54 (54, 55, 55, 56, 56) cm / 21.25 (21.25, 21.7, 21.7, 22, 22)” and BUST: 105 (115, 125, 135, 145, 158) cm / 41.5 (45.3, 49.2, 53, 57, 62)”. These measurements ensure a flattering silhouette for every wearer.
