Knitting gauge is 10 sts = 10 cm in stockinette stitch on 9 mm needles.

Needle size is always a suggestion; if you have too many stitches per 10 cm, switch to a larger needle, and if you have too few stitches per 10 cm, switch to a smaller needle size.

Many other yarn qualities can be used; always knit a small swatch.

You need 8 stitch markers. A short circular needle size 9 mm (40 cm), long circular needles size 7 mm and 9 mm, and double-pointed needles size 7 mm. You will also need a cable, scrap yarn, or stitch holder to hold your sleeve stitches. 3 buttons, approx. 2 cm wide.

The cardigan is knitted top-down with raglan sleeves, and you can measure the length as you work to see if the sleeves and body fit you. You knit back and forth on a long circular needle; only the sleeves are knitted in the round on a short circular needle.

A classic cardigan with a great, slightly oversized fit for your wardrobe.
