SUMMER VERSION

Gauge: Stockinette on size US 10: 13 sts/4", 19.5 rows/4"

Materials:

• Loopy Mango Summer Yarn 90 yds 82 m | 100 g 3.5 oz each, 100% cotton
  
• US 10 (6 mm) 32" (80 cm) circular needles

Note: You can make this entire garment using 32’’ long needles.  However, you will need to use magic loop method for the sleeves as this length is too long.  To avoid magic loop you can use shorter 16’’ needles OR DPN.

This cardigan is worked flat from the neck to the armholes, then stitches are placed on hold for the sleeves while the body is worked flat to the bottom edge. When the body is complete, the sleeves are worked in the round to the cuff.  

Pine cone motif: this is a 10 stitch, 20 row repeat.

There are two options for the sleeves - short sleeve and long sleeve.
