First Blush Cardigan
Just in time for spring and summer comes a special occasion cardigan from Cardiff Bay Handknits. The First Blush cardigan is worked from the bottom up in a gorgeous silk and alpaca worsted yarn, beginning with a stunning crochet border that progresses into stockinette stitch with simple shaping. The three-quarter sleeves are picked up and knit from the shoulder down, giving you a flawless armhole and minimizing your finishing. Crochet skills needed for this pattern include chaining, single crochet and double crochet, so although the waistband and cuffs appear quite intricate, you’ll be amazed at the simplicity. Perfect for wearing over a maxi dress this summer, or any favorite sundress, the First Blush cardigan is an indispensable addition for your summer wardrobe. Pattern is written in English with American crochet terminology, and first page of pattern is shown in photos for more detail.
