Casbah cardigan

This cardigan came about because I decided I wanted to stripe the variegated yarn with the semi-solid.  I used my usual construction method for self-designed cardigans - bottom up, body in one piece to armholes then split for the front and back.  Sleeves top down.  I used a knitted on i-cord buttonband because the buttons I chose to use are small and I think would have got lost on a ribbed buttonband (and probably wouldn't have stayed done up either).

I bought the yarn from Purlescence, although she has very little in stock at the moment.  The buttons are vintage but I can't remember now whether I bought them at Camberwell or Hammersmith vintage fair.

I love fact that they are all slightly different from each other and I have enough left to use for another project.
