The Button Street cardigan is worked from the shoulders-down and the set in sleeves are created simultaneously with the upper bodice in a technique originally described by Barbara Walker (photo tutorial included). A wide ribbing and scoop neckline frame the upper bodice, and the fitted silhouette is designed to skim the body line and flatter the figure.

Shaping is accomplished via princess darts to allow for maximum flexibility in shaping. The garment is intended to be worn with anywhere from -1” to +2” of

ease, so choose a size that is closest to your bust measurement. See “Some Thoughts About Fit” for more information on knitting and modifying to suit your fit

preferences.
