Note:!%%, cotton Camilla by Madame Tricote -aris could also be used < it has the samewonderful bright colors and is a very similar yarn.

.ther materials:

=our buttons about %* inch (%.4cm) in diameter/ +*- inch (cm) ma>imum (I used0ress it up buttons) some beads.

Note:As the title says this is a revised version of my original pattern ? version =ebruary ,%+.I am really sorry I confused you last time.. I spent many time again to write new version

so I hope that this time it will be clear now all. If you find something confusing pleasewrite me on this e!mail" vendula.maderska#se$nam.c$0ear girls I am very happy you like my design but please noticed that this pattern isnot to teaching you to crocheting pattern you should know basic skills.

&his cardigan is not difficult to make. &he hardest part is probably the yoke < you needto keep counting the stitches on every round to be sure the increases line up properly.orking from the neck edge down the chart below gives instructions for the yoke. After

@ow - separate the yoke into two fronts the back and two sleeves.

Note 1I have made this cardigan in various color combinations/ I decided leave only two +

Note 2&he yoke is worked in a !round pattern < % row of 09 followed by % row of S9. 9ountthe number of stitches while working every round to avoid having to rework rounds.

Note 3 – very importantegin every round of 09 with + 9: then make a :09 in the very first stitch. &hisbeginning + 9: %:09 group counts as the %st 09 (see picture below)egin every round of S9 with % 9: then make the first S9 in the first stitch. &hisbeginning % 9: % S9 group counts as the %st S9

Note 4At the end of every round turn your work and start the ne>t round as given in Bote

orking round ends this way gives nice straight edgesC

Please read ALL notes carefully before starting

to avoid having to rework.
