A Little About This Pattern:
The Cropped Feather Stitch Cardi is the perfect wardrobe accessory for Spring and Summer. This piece is designed to enhance your crochet skills with the beautiful feather stitch and is worked using my feather stitch square motif pattern to make a unique and functional cropped cardigan that will catch the eye while worn. This pattern works well for advanced beginners and experienced crocheters alike.

We begin the cropped cardi by working the main square motif, then add the sleeves, and lastly the border. The clear written directions, photos and diagrams along with access to short video tutorials for any of the tricky areas makes this pattern one that is accessible to a variety of skill levels. Also, as a made-to-measure type of pattern, you are certain to have a finished result that fits!
