This open front cardigan is beautiful in its simplicity. Large color blocks add interest and invite you to play with colors, choosing either bold or subtle combinations.
The cardigan is worked seamlessly from top down. The collar edges are finished with an i-cord that is worked simultaneously with the collar.
The pattern includes a photo tutorial for the lifted increases.
