It's worked top down in a modified raglan construction where the yoke and body are worked flat and the sleeves are worked in the round. This pattern is charted and does not have written instructions for the charts. This pattern is best suited for intermediate knitters that are comfortable reading and managing multiple charts at once. Model is wearing a size 2 in both the yellow and burgundy samples. **SIZING** The Maisie cardigan is designed to be worn with approximately 6-8 in / 15-20 cm of positive  ease, meaning the circumference of the cardigan when buttoned is approximately 6-8 in / 15-20 cm larger than your bust when fully buttoned.
