Note: This cardigan can be done on size 10 32’’ circulars. Magic loop will need to be used for the sleeves. To avoid magic loop you can use size 10 16’’ circulars or DPN’s for the sleeves.
NOTE: A tapestry needle may be helpful when seaming and securing all loose ends.
Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry or tumble dry. Please test any washing/drying method on a small swatch to ensure you like the end result. Our cotton is un-mercerized and minimally processed to preserve the fiber’s natural softness and elasticity.
Yarn made in Italy, kit assembled in the USA.
