Name: Rondo Cardigan pattern
SKU: 313159

I never knew how much I would like wearing a cardigan until I created this one. The chic and comfy Rondo cardigan is knitted top down in one piece and in two colors. The body is knitted flat and the sleeves in the round.
The added straps with hardware rings as closure rather than predictable buttons add a bit of attitude and chic. It’s good to be different, right?

In sizes S, M, L, XL and XXL, to fit bust measurements
34”/36”, 38”/40”, 42”/44”, 46”/48” and 50”/52” with 0”-2” of ease.

You may like the Body longer (you would need more yarn) and the Sleeves could be 3/4 length.

The pattern has been tech edited and test knitted. It is written, has a schematic, a color chart and a photo tutorial for adding the closure straps.
