This comfortably loose-fitting Tunisian crochet cardigan ends mid-thigh for a flattering silhouette. The linear regularity of the stitch pattern on the body makes a nice counterpoint to the openwork sleeves. Tie it up with the crochetedb elt, or let it hang open.

The sleeves are made in regular crochet from the armhole down. This eliminates the need to seam the sleeves or sew them tot he armholes later. It also gives you the flexibility to decide on the length as you make them, anything from a short cap to a long bell sleeve.
