Scissors tidd.ly/3t6i7IR
Yarn needle tidd.ly/3GEXSYr
Stitch marker tidd.ly/3a7LVy6

Notes:
This cardigan is worked flat in 2 separate pieces and then sewn together (2 panels are made the same)
In this tutorial I have demonstrated with size small
Yarn needed for size small = 2,600 yards of #0 lace weight. If you're using #1 fingering weight, cut the yardage in half plus a little extra (just to be safe)
Gauge blocked: 23 st X 10 rows = 4" In main stitch pattern, row 12 and 13 is a main stitch pattern repeat. To make a gauge swash, ch an even number and then crochet row 1-23
Measurements for size small = 25.60" Body width across X 25.73" Length
