Let’s get crazy with the sleeves and get some feminine feeling with this foxy colored cardigan! This is a simple cardigan with fun, slightly puffed sleeves. The cardigan has a simple v-neck and a shape that flatters most body figures. Knitted from the top down, starting from the back piece, continuing to front yoke pieces and joined together to work the body part, you can adjust the length of the cardigan easily. Sleeve stitches are picked up from armholes and shaped with three different sections.
