Fluffy Shawl Cardigan
How the cardigan is worked:
This is a very simple dropped-shoulder cardigan shape worked from the top down.
There is no shoulder seams and no shoulder shaping. The join between body and sleeve is not on the shoulder, but between shoulder and elbow. The body is a large rectangle.
The photo tutorial will give you a demonstrative instruction how to knit this cardigan.
