PATTERN INFORMATION
Cabled Hexagon Cardigan is a relaxed cardigan combining cables, garter stitch and 2x2 ribbing, designed with 5-20 cm/2-8 in of positive ease at chest - you can make it with a small positive ease or oversized, depending on your style.

The cardigan is inspired by crochet granny stitch hexagon cardigans.
Like its crochet versions, it is made of two hexagon shapes joined at the back. The hexagons are worked from the underarm outwards and are folded into an upside-down letter L - one for the left half of the body and the left sleeve, and one for the right half of the body and the right sleeve. When the body is completed, a ribbed yoke is added to create the shoulder slope and the body is finished with ribbing along the lower edge, fronts and the neck. The pattern contains instructions for cropped and long sleeves.

My cardigan was made with Cascade 220 Superwash (100% superwash wool; 200 m/220 yds per 100 g, colourway: Feather Grey).
You can use a lighter DK/sport yarn, such as Malabrigo Arroyo, if you want a lighter cardigan with more drape. However, before you decide to use a non-DK yarn, make a swatch to ensure you obtain the correct gauge and you are happy with the fabric the yarn produces.

Stockinette stitch: 22 sts and 30 rows/rnds = 10 cm/4 in, with larger needle(s)
Garter stitch: 20 sts and 40 rows/rnds = 10 cm/4 in, with larger needle(s)
12-stitch back panel is 4 cm/1.5 in wide, with larger needle(s)
2x2 rib stitch: 22 sts and 34 rows/rnds = 10 cm/4 in, with smaller needle(s), slightly stretched
