A perfect little short-sleeved cardi which adds extra warmth in spring and fall without overheating. This simple smock style cardigan is knit with generous ease for a very flattering look!
This is a comfy, top down raglan style cardigan with 3-4 inches of ease, which is worked on circular needles. The body of the sweater is worked in stockinette stitch, while the sleeves and pockets add interest with reverse stockinette. Stitches are picked up for the button and buttonhole bands, as well as for the collar, which is worked vertically.
