A perfect little cardigan for warm weather. The yarn that I used is a cottom blend and I designed it with short sleeves. The lacy beaded diamond pattern travels from the center bottom over the shoulders. The garter stitch beaded front and neck band really add a great interest. The lace and beading instructions are provided in written and charted form, so that you can use what you are most comfortable with. This method of beading is one of the easiest. The bead just sits in between 2 purl sts. A wide range of sizes are available.
