I used one color in DK weight wool for my main color with four contrast colors. Feel free to customize the stripes and color palette to work with any types of DK weight yarn that you like. Begin with the main color and then continue with raglan increases to shape the yoke. The yoke and body are knit flat and the sleeves are knitted in the round. The ribbed button band is picked up along the front edges for crisp 2x2 ribbing. The pattern includes videos linked throughout the pattern that demonstrate how to cast on, bind off, weave in ends as you knit, and how to do the one-row buttonhole technique. Have fun knitting this cozy stockinette stitch cardigan and style it with your Westknits shawls and hats!\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll rights reserved.
