PATTERN NOTES
Really Ridgy is a seamless yoke cardigan knit from top to bottom meant to be worn with 4 – 6 inches of positive ease. This is the ultimate beginner friendly cardigan! The Ridgy pattern is a combination of knit rows and purl rows. The sleeves are knit without any decreases for a bell sleeve. When knitting the short rows for the collar, there is no need to pick up the wraps as they are well hidden in Garter Stitch. To see a tutorial on how to make the perfect buttonholes click HERE.

I liked the fact that this cardigan is knitted in one piece and is just in basic stitches as I like to knit and watch television so best to keep patterns simple. I do not like knitting on circular needles and managed to do the fronts and back on straight needles (just) but am now awaiting delivery of a circular needle to continue with the sleeves.
If I had realised I could have done the sleeves first and stitched up the seam afterwards. Will let you know when I have completed the cardigan how it turned out. Up to now I have enjoyed knitting it and found the pattern very easy to follow. Will knit it again in another colour if it fits ok.
