This cropped cardigan is just the thing to throw on over a
sundress in transitional weather or the air-conditioned office.
Dandelion chains and leaves encircle the yoke as the body
gives way to a flattering deep ribbed band below the bust.

The Dandelion Cardi is a steeked colorwork yoke sweater,
worked in the round from the top down. Short Rows are
used just below the colorwork section to raise the back
neck of the sweater. Ribbing is created in turned rows and
joined as you go to the hem, armholes, and neckline. Ribbed
button bands are crocheted separately and stitched to
fronts after steek is cut.
