**Sizes**: Discover the perfect fit for your wardrobe with finished bust measurements of 87 cm, 95 cm, and extended options (103 cm, 113 cm, 120 cm, 137 cm, 145 cm, 155 cm). This cardigan is designed with a recommended ease of 5 cm at the bust, ensuring a comfortable and flattering silhouette.
**Yarn**: Create your cozy cardigan using fingering weight yarn. We recommend *Merinos de Heidi Idea* in the stunning colorway *Beaujolais*, which lends a beautiful depth and richness to your finished project. For optimal drape and comfort, this yarn composition is perfect for layering during cooler months.
**Yardage**: Plan ahead for your project with an approximate yardage requirement of 1100 m, 1200 m (and options of 1300 m, 1430 m, 1580 m, 1730 m, 1835 m, 1960 m) depending on your selected size. Make sure you have enough yarn on hand for that perfect fit!
**Needles**: For this cardigan, use 3.5 mm needles (US size 4) for the body and 3 mm needles (US size 2.5) for the ribbing. The use of the right needle size not only affects the tension but also contributes to the overall finish of your cardigan.
**Materials**: Don't forget your essential tools! Gather your markers, tapestry needle, waste yarn, and 7 buttons in a 11 mm size to complete your cardigan. These notions are key to making the knitting process smooth and enjoyable.
**Gauge**: Achieve a precise fit with a gauge of 26 stitches and 36 rows per 10 cm in stockinette stitch after blocking. Accurate gauge is essential for ensuring your cardigan turns out just as envisioned.
