It is always exciting to greet the spring! After a long winter, spring comes, and the sprouts grow upwards from the ground, creating new energy with the sun.

The body of this cardigan is worked back and forth in pieces from the bottom to the underarm, then divided for working the front and back separately. The sleeves are picked up from the armhole and worked in the round.

Stitch patterns are written as individual pattern elements, and charted as larger groups of elements.

Sample is 38.5”; model is 32”

This pattern is split between smaller and larger sizes to make sure the stitch pattern works best with the wide size range. Separate charts are included for the different size options.
