FO: Sage Cardigan New Version

Probably you are wondering what had happened with my Sage Cardigan new version. Well.... It’s finished and I really like the result. However, it is a bit bigger than what I wanted it to be. It’s totally my fault that I didn’t do a swatch first. This yarn is very stiff and it hurt my hand when I knit with it, but once washed, it relaxed a lot and became very soft.

Below is the photo before washing. What do you think?

Love this cardigan! I've just bought the pattern, and have a quick question - when you say the needles should be 3.25, 3.5mm (strait/circle) do i need a set of each kind? i can knit, but not sure if i make this on circular or strait needles? sorry to be so dense! thanks.
