Spice Caravan Cardigan
When you don’t feel like knitting an entire sweater in fair isle pattern but have odds and ends of yarn to use up, what do you knit? Try this cropped long-sleeve deep v-neck cardigan. The bottom of the body won’t wave in the breeze with the tapered sides. The multi-colored pattern of the sleeves was inspired by an area rug.
