Shown in the second size. **Pattern notes** This cardigan is worked from the top down, casting on a few stitches, placing cable panels for sleeves and back, and increasing in pattern to shape the upper body and front neckline. Stitches are then cast on for each front, where two further cable panels are placed, before shaping the sleeves and upper body with raglan increases. Sleeve caps are divided and set aside, then the body is worked to the desired length. Sleeves are picked up and worked top-down, before front bands and neck edging are worked. I-cord buttonholes complete the cardigan.
