Once squares are places, start sewing them together using a mattress stitch. The look we are going for is slightly “untidy”. Use any colour yarn you prefer to sew in your squares.

Start sewing your cardigan together: Start by sewing seams of sleeves. Place your back panel onto a flat surface. Place your 2 front panels symmetrically, start sewing the shoulder seams. Once this is done, sew your sleeves onto each side of the cardigan. Make sure the seam of each sleeve is facing down. Carry on sewing your cardigan down the two sides. Fasten off and tidy up all loose ends. Sew on your red collar: Sew on your red collar by placing it symmetrically on the top of your front panel. You can help yourself by placing a safety pin in the center to secure the collar. Add bottom ribbed edging and sleeves cuffs: Place your ribbed bottom edging underneath the bottom edge of your cardigan. Sew this in, using a visible seam on the top of edge (see photographs for detail) Place your sleeve cuffs underneath the bottom of the sleeves. Sew these in using a visible seam on the top of edge (see photographs for detail) Crochet the front button edge onto cardigan: With 6 mm crochet hook and Cygnet chunky yarn in shade Saxe, attach your yarn just underneath the collar of cardigan on each side. Row 1: Ch 1, and proceed on placing SC equally all along the front edging, including the bottom ribbed edging. Once you reach the bottom, ch 3 (=DC), turn your work. Row 2: Place a DC into 2nd SC from previous row, and into each SC across until eor. Fasten off, tidy up all loose ends. Do the same on other side of the front of the cardigan. Sew on 8 buttons to the blue opening of cardigan, on the left side. With darning needle and black thread: Place 1st button on the top, and then place each of the remaining buttons at a 3” distance from each approximately..
