Notes

My gauge wasn’t right so I started to knit size XXL and I hope that the result is M.

I was little worried that this cardigan would be too small. But the size is just right. I knitted so long I have yarn left. I love the cables of this cardigan.

Modifications:

  • I made raglan increases 25 times.
  • In sleeves I decreased every 16th row 8 times.
  • Some waist shaping. I can’t remember anymore what I made.
