I designed this sweet little ballet top because I found it hard to find a raglan sleeved, crossover cardigan/shrug for a 2 year old.

I had seen something similar with a cable edge on it so decided to make up my own edge and add it.

It’s warm for winter ballet classes and there are instructions for short sleeves too.

I have now added sizes up to 6 (2018)

The blue version has some small beads/pearls on the cables down the fronts.

I used normal sewing thread and small beads/pearls. I just ran the sewing thread down the back of the cable and popped the needle through at each cable and added a bead/pearl. It’s too tedious to sew each on individually so this was the easiest way to do it.
