Travel Light

Lightweight open front cardigan, worked seamlessly from top down, joining pieces as you go. Due to relaxed fit it’s a perfect cardigan to wrap yourself into, when the weather gets chilly.
The sleeves are extra long but it’s easy to shorten them if needed. The pattern includes a construction schematic for easier visualizing.
