The Forever cardigan is a short, light and fluffy bolero style cardigan with puff sleeves and feminine details.

It is knit top-down with raglan shoulder increases. Techniques used are german short rows & left leg increases in addition to basic stitches like stockinette and garter stitch. All techniques are described and linked to demonstration videos.
