This buttonless cardigan by Rosa P. has a pretty and simple moss stitch pattern (resembling a rice grain) and is worked from the top down with raglan increases. The front band is knit with a double selvedge stitch and slip stitches. The sleeves are worked in the round on double pointed needles or with the magic loop method.
