Knit with any sport weight/5ply yarn, this sweet little cardigan is simple to make, with a little added texture for interest. The sleeves are knitted flat, the body is worked in one piece from the bottom up to the armholes, then the sleeves are added and the raglan shaping is continued in one piece from the armholes to the neckband.
