Daft Days Cardigan

**All proceeds from the sale of the Daft Days cardigan and shawl until the end of 2023 will be donated to [The Fistula Foundation][1]. I'll also be matching up to £5000 in sales.** The Daft Days cardigan is an all-over textured cardigan, worked from the bottom up using a slip-stitch pattern. The magic of this cardigan comes from the colours you choose to work it up in. Use just 2 colours, a chosen palette, or mini skeins to make it truly special. The instructions are given for working the pattern flat, but some testers chose to work it in the round and steek; details on this are not given in the pattern. **Sizes**: 1(2, 3, 4, 5, 6) (7, 8, 9, 10) **Finished Chest Circumference:** 87.5 (96, 107.5, 116, 126.5, 136) (146.5, 155, 166.5, 177) cm/ 34.25 (37.75, 42.25, 45.5, 49.75, 53.5) (57.5, 61, 65.5, 69.5) inches **Gauge:** 21 stitches and 33 rows in slip stitch pattern = 10 cm/4 inches.
