Waist shaping gives this nearly traditional, slightly boyish Aran cardigan a newly flattering, refreshingly feminine form. The body showcases a diamond cable, an elongated cable, and a twisted rib stitch, elements of which are subtly echoed in the bottom border and sleeves.

Another set of gauge is given for the fancy rib: 24 sts/24 rows in 4” (10 cm).

Finished Sizes: 33 1/2 (38, 42 1/2, 47, 51 1/2)“; 85 96.5, 108, 119.5, 131cm.
