From pattern description: “Loose-fitting cardigan in a lacy frost flowers pattern, with bell sleeves and twisted cord front closures.”

From Vogue Knitting, Holiday 2006: “Shirley Paden sets the mood for a blissful snowed-in weekend with her bell-cuffed, ruffle-collard cardi, stitched in a ‘frost flowers’ pattern in ‘Zarina’ by Filatura Di Crosa/Tahki Stacy Charles, Inc. The curlicue neck edging accents the delicate waist shaping; twisted cord ties bring closure.”
