DESCRIPTION
If you’ve been looking for a cardigan that will become your go-to, you’ve just found it. Knit bottom-up, it’s got a beautiful drop shoulder construction that drapes especially well over the shoulder due to being knit with a cotton and rayon blend yarn. Pair it with a flowy skirt for an afternoon tea with friends, or with jeans and sneakers, and you’ve got a total classic on your hands!

With a slight crop, tapered waist, and buttons, the Afternoon Tea Cardi is intended to be worn with 2 1/2–4 1/2 inches (6–11.5 cm) of positive ease at the bust.

This pattern is written in nine sizes—XS (S, M, L, XL) (2XL, 3XL, 4XL, 5XL). It is suggested that you highlight all the numbers for your size to avoid confusion.
