Row By Row Cardigan

The Row By Row cardigan is a dramatic, graphic stripe pattern that allows you to use short rows in garter stitch to create the pattern, while at the same time shaping the sweater. +[Row by Row Introduction ][1] The sweater begins with the yoke worked from side to side using short rows for shaping. From here, stitches are picked up along the bottom, and the remainder of the cardigan is worked seamlessly from the top down. The short row colourwork motif is echoed along the front bands and sleeve cuffs. Motifs are modified from Woolly Wormhead’s ‘Short Row Colourwork’ book. > Yarn kits for this pattern are > [available here.][2] **SIZES To Fit Actual Bust Circumference Up To:** 31.25 (35.5, 39, 43.25, 46, 50.25, 53, 57)” / 79.5 (90, 99, 110, 117, 127.5, 134.5, 145) cm *2 - 3” / 5 - 7.5 cm of positive ease recommended.* **FINISHED MEASUREMENTS Bust Circumference:** 33.25 (37.5, 41, 45.25, 48, 52.25, 55, 59)” / 84.5 (95.5, 104, 115, 122, 132.5, 139.5, 150) cm buttoned *Size 37.5” / 95.5 cm modelled with 2”/ 4 cm positive ease.* **Length from Back of Neck:** 22.75 (23.25, 23.5, 24, 24.5, 25, 25.25, 25.75)” / 58 (59, 59.5, 61, 62, 63.5, 64, 65.5) cm **YARN** LITLG ‘Sport’ (100% Superwash Merino, 328 yds / 300 m per 3.53 oz / 100 g); colours: **MC:** Grove; 4 (4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6) skeins **CC:** Mint Grove; 1 skein **Approximate Yardage MC:** 1064 (1155, 1249, 1354, 1456, 1579, 1673, 1792) yds / 973 (1056, 1142, 1239, 1332, 1444, 1530, 1639) m **CC:** 168 (181, 194, 209, 230, 246, 263, 278) yds / 154 (165, 178, 191, 211, 225, 240, 255) m **NEEDLES & NOTIONS** US size 4 / 3.5 mm circular needles, 32-40” / 80-100 cm long US size 4 / 3.5 mm dpns if magic loop not used for sleeves *Always use a needle size that gives you the gauge listed, as every knitter's gauge is unique.* Tapestry needle, waste yarn, markers, 9 (9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 10, 10) buttons approx. 23 mm diam. **GAUGE** 23 sts and 32 rnds = 4" / 10 cm in St St blocked 23 sts and 40 rnds = 4" / 10 cm in Garter Stitch blocked [1]: https://youtu.be/PlK8EbTnxf4 [2]: https://stolenstitches.com/products/row-by-row-cardigan-yarn-kit
