Estela Sweater
A simple cardigan with a subtle touch of elegance from the star stitch work gently rambling down the front and hems.
For Estela, I envisioned the relaxed, throw-on sweater we always need, with a bit of stitch work - super-cute stars, in this case!
With a basic, open front construction, this sweater easily moves from day to night with a swish of an outfit change.
For a less classic look, knit the body shorter for a trendy, cropped look.
Aran weight yarn makes for a quick knit without a chunky feel.
Sweater is knit top down with raglan shaping, sleeves are picked up from held sts and worked in the round.
