Product Description
I am often wanting to wear a cardigan with a dress, but I find that it can look boxy. So I designed this cardigan to be worn with a dress without hiding the lines of the dress, giving a more flattering fit. The cardigan is a rounded yoke, top down construction worked in one piece. The yoke is decorated with a picot cast on, purl ridges with eyelets that have a knot stitch worked in the rows between them. Raglan increases are worked to shape the bodice. There are short rows across the back so that the front neckline hangs a little lower than the back neckline. And there is waist shaping. The body of the cardigan is cropped and worked in Stockinette Stitch followed by a deep ribbed band. Then it has a velvet ribbon sewed to the button band and pretty purl buttons to add the perfect feminine touch to a lovely cardigan.
Shibui was used for the sample, an alternative is suggested.
