Daisied is a yoked cardigan featuring a striking daisy motif, balloon sleeves and a seamless bottom-up construction. Body and sleeves are knit in the round separately before being joined at the underarm to work the yoke. The cardigan is then steeked to create the front opening. The button band is knit in one continuous piece comprising each side of the front opening and the neckline ribbing. A modern twist on the traditional stranded cardi!
