This is a cropped cardigan or bolero worked all in stockinette stitch, with beautiful piping edging in a contrast colour, which contains embroidery and sequin beads.

The bolero is worked top down in one piece and raglan shaping. So feel free to make it longer to your liking any time. The beautiful pink edging is knitted on in the round and with tucks. The panel between the tucks is filled with sequin stitching

There is no closure.
