So many possibilities…a simple short sleeve cardigan with fantastic eyelet edges. This piece can be transformed by threading I-cord through the eyelets to gather the garment to your shape, or close it with a favortie belt, button or brooch.

Worked at quite a loose gauge, this is an airy, surprising take on a traditional shape. Top is worked in two pieces beginning with the sleeve knit in the round, then casting on for front and back. Front and back are worked simultaneously. Pieces are joined at center back.
