165 Eaton Place

165 Eaton Place is a woman's cardigan inspired by the BBC show, "Upstairs, Downstairs". It is the type of cardigan one would wear to afternoon tea but will work just as nicely as a cardigan to wear to work.
It is worked from the bottom up in an alternating slip stitch pattern. Sleeves are worked in the round and then joined to the yoke. Ribbing in a contrast color are worked on all edges, including the button band. The contrast color is also used for the collar (which can easily be left off if you choose!)
