**Sizing Information:** This versatile pattern is available in a range of sizes with a chest measurement of 32(36, 40, 44, 48, 52) inches. The cardigan's length measures 13(13.5, 14, 14, 14.5, 15) inches from the cast-on to the underarm, ensuring a flattering fit for everyone.
**Yarn Details:** For the Saison Cardigan, we recommend using Dragonfly Fibers Dance Rustic Silk, made from 100% silk noil. With 450 yards per 4 oz skein, you will need a total of 2(2, 2, 2, 2, 3) skeins, depending on the size you choose. Our sample was beautifully knit in the enchanting colorway Mermaid.
**Needle Requirements:** To create your Saison Cardigan, you will need a US #5/3.75mm circular needle, at least 32 inches long for the body of the cardigan. If you’re knitting larger sizes, you may prefer a longer needle. Additionally, have your preferred method ready for knitting small circumferences in the round, or choose a needle size that achieves the proper gauge.
**Gauge Specifications:** To ensure a perfect fit, aim for a gauge of 20 stitches and 28 rows per 4” in stockinette stitch.
**Notions Needed:** Don’t forget to gather a few essential notions: stitch markers for easy tracking, waste yarn or stitch holders for organizing your stitches, a yarn needle for weaving in ends, and one button, measuring 5/8”, to complete your cardigan.
