Pink sheep cardigan is a short-length style knit with 3/4 big balloon sleeves. The jacket is worked top-down and the front band is buttonless. Sleeves and the body are worked in Fisherman rib stitch. Sleeves are without cuffs and the body has no hem. Because the sweater body and sleeves are worked straight, it can be easily made longer and of course, more yarns should be estimated. Pink sheep cardigan is a short fashionable cardigan that fits well with high waist jeans or shorts.
