This is an unusual cardigan; the back, left front and part of the right front are knit in reverse stockinette stitch. The sleeves are worked in 1x1 ribbing. The remainder of the right front is picked up and also worked in ribbing but horizontally. The asymmetrical front closing is accented with over size buttons. We have received requests for this cardigan in other yarns and gauges.
women's sweaters 29 – zooey is knit in a heavier gauge
women's sweaters 36 – agnes is knit in a fine alpaca yarn with finer gauge.
