Knitting pattern for Ruke fluffy cardigan

The Ruke fluffy cardigan is an oversized hip-length garment with balloon sleeves, perfect for beginners. No shoulder seams are necessary, as it is knitted all in one piece. The front band is then added once the body is complete. Then, the sleeves are worked, and two side seams complete the stylish sweater, ideal to pair with a variety of styles at home or away.
