@mollymaggie   Good morning. Without using my hands to illustrate, lol, she then takes the remaining length of the cargidan (w/ the buttons), pulls it behind her back, waist high & ties a small knot. The only part covered is then arms and shoulders. Obviously, this is easiest done w/ a lighterweight sweater. 

 

I’ve also done this “ballerina style”... arms in sleeves, crossing one side of cardigan over the other to the right or left and tying it in front there unbuttoned. You can fold the buttoned sides under to create a deeper v neck.
