Notes:

The Mixed Tape Cardigan design was made to capture the many elements of a dear friends personality… she is the ultimate mixed tape!
It is designed without buttons and buttonholes, so it is an open-style cardigan (jacket).  You are welcome to modify for buttons; I personally have a mental block with them and prefer to not cardigan it.

This is knit bottom up, with a three-needle bind off to join the shoulders.
