This bottom up cardigan features a lace leaf stitch pattern at the hem which then continues into garter stitch for the rest of the sweater. Drop shoulder sleeves allow easier movement and easier seaming.

Gauge Notes
Leaf pattern (16 sts) measures 6.5cm, (2½in) on 4mm needles or the size required to give correct tension. Check your tension - if less stitches use a thinner needle, if more use a thicker needle.
