**a fade**
 
I designed this cardigan to use a very special set of yarns that create a color sequence where one color fades into the next one. However, La Prairie can also be knitted in a solid color. Instructions for color changes are given separately.
 
*PRO TIP: If you don’t want to buy extra skeins for your size, you can always change the amount of colors you use.
I give you detailed instructions on how and when to fade, so instead of buying a second skein of all 5 colors, you can add a 6th color and make each color band a little bit shorter *
 
**SIZES**
This pattern has a different sizing than my usual, since it uses a large pattern repeat and I had limitations with different stitch counts.
There are 6 sizes, with 6" [15 cm] increments around the bust. Please refer to the table of measurements to choose the perfect size for you.
Sizes are labeled 1 to 6, for bust circumferences of 30-68" [75-170 cm].
Recommended ease: 4-10" [10-25cm]. 
Shown in size 2 on a 36”  [90 cm] bust.
