A cropped cardigan is my absolute go-to wardrobe staple and is surely one of the most useful things you can make?! This version is super soft and super warm making it even more perfect! I’ve used Fluff (or and kid Mohair) for the button band and neck to make these a less obvious part of the cardy, but you can just follow the same instructions continuing with the main yarn if you prefer. A contrast colour might be nice though?!
