Gage is not important for this pattern, instructions are given on sizing it for any size desired with a couple simple measurements.

The stitches for this Bolero start from a chain in the middle of the back and then go out in either direction from there to form a rectangle. The ends of the rectangle are then stitched together for the last 3 or 4 inches to form the sleeve, then a border and fun collar are added on the edges.

It’s so easy it feels like cheating!

The pastel colors of the yarn I used and the delicacy of the stitches reminded my of apple blossoms in spring.
