Drop Stitch Lace Cardigan
This versatile layering sweater is knit flat in pieces and sewn together. It can be paired with a tank top and shorts in the summer or with a long sleeve t-shirt and jeans in colder weather. Either way, the pattern looks a lot more complicated than it is, making this suitable for advanced beginners.

Pattern Notes
I’d recommend knitting this sweater with no or very little ease for the proper fit since the pattern has a lot of give to it. The sweater shown is size XS modeled with no ease. Selvage stitches have already been added to the stitch counts so that you’ll have a nice edge for sewing the pieces together.
