Fairy Ring

Fairy Ring is a colourwork yoke cardigan for kids and adults. It is knitted top down in the round with a steek for the front opening, starting with a provisional cast-on at the neck. Button bands are worked after cutting the steek, and finally the neckband is picked up along the provisional cast-on and tops of the button bands, and worked flat. Lengthening or shortening the body is straightforward, but if adding length, ensure you have sufficient extra yarn.
