Top off any outfit with this cap-sleeved bolero that is knit using two types of cast-ons and a crosshatch pattern.
This bolero is worked in two halves from the centre out. After the first half is completed, the second half is worked from provisional cast-on edge. Keep the cast-on and cast-off edges of the armholes loose enough to allow crosshatch patterns to block out to full width. Circular needles are used to accommodate large number of stitches, do not join. The crosshatch patterns may be worked from text or charts.
