PATTERN INFORMATION
Summer in a Box Cardigan is a simple top-down cardigan with a few interesting details: a lace yoke, a narrow horizontal lace panel at the back and a lace border finishing the body. The pattern contains different body and sleeve length options: you can make a cropped cardigan with a narrow lace border or a hip length one with a wider lace section. The body is worked without shaping, but if you want to lengthen the cardigan and widen it at the hips, you will find information on how to add hip shaping in Pattern Notes. Three sleeve options are included in the instructions: sleeveless, short sleeves in lace pattern and long sleeves in stockinette stitch with lace cuffs.
A pullover version is also available in my Ravelry shop (here) and on ewelinamurach.com.
