This is a very clearly written pattern and it was a pleasure to knit!
Your patterns are a hit. … Very positive response from clients.
I loved the pattern from the first time I saw it and really enjoyed knitting it. So much so that I am doing a second one navy. And I never knit any pattern more than once.
She continues to push the envelope of self-patterning yarn and her newest mitten and glove patterns make me wish spring would slow down.
… the patterns are very clear and spell out specific techniques for things like decreasing etc. when they are important for the appearance of the project. Gotta love that!

Pattern
Bespoke Cardigan
I gave the gift of a bespoke cardigan pattern to my stepfather, Nigel. Featuring details of his choosing, I wrote a pattern for him to knit in exactly his size. Then I sized the pattern to fit 28-68″ inch/71-172.5 cm chests, and that is what is available here. Bespoke is a deliberately and thoughtfully gender- and size-inclusive design, featuring options for narrow and broad shoulders, and regular and tall lengths.

And I’ve got to say, I really quite like the zigzag effect when viewed from above.
