The Marigold Cardigan, adult version comes with two fully explained variations, the original pattern the same as the children’s version, and a newer V-neck, drop shoulder version.
The original pattern is pages 1 - 11, the variation is pages 12 -17.

This pattern is suited for beginners with an understanding of basic stitches. New stitches might be the bobble stitch - dc5tog, and the fphdc, bphdc ribbing method. I have tutorials for both of these on my instagram IGTV @littlegoldennook.

Sizing -
To fit chest:
XXS – 73- 78cm, 29-31”
XS – 80 – 84cm, 31.5 – 33”
S – 84 – 89cm, 33 – 35”
M – 91 – 98cm, 36 – 39”
L – 101 -108cm, 40 – 43”
XL – 111 -120cm, 44 – 47”
2XL – 122 – 130cm, 48 – 51”
3XL – 132 – 137cm, 52 – 54”

If you fall into one of the above sizes but tend to have bigger arms I suggest using a half size bigger hook size or going up one size for the original pattern.
With the pattern variation you can easily make a certain size body, and follow a larger or smaller sleeve size.

10ply/Worsted/Aran/Medium weight yarn is best to achieve the gauge and sizing for this pattern. There is the option of making your cardigan shorter or longer than the suggested measurements.
