Just a lil something to add to your collection.
I've been looking everywhere for a tutorial for a cardigan sweater but i couldnt find one. So heres to anyone whos had trouble finding one.
Note: It takes alot of patience. If you get frustrated walk away for awhile then come back ,thats why it took m two hours to complete.
Also, keep in mind the kind of fabric your sweater is because itll help when measuring ribbon.
I hope you find this atleast a little helpful ( =
****Sorry for not having better pictures especially for the buttonhole parts.****
