This cardi is the second knit in the sweet as honey range after the success of the jumper. This cardi is cropped and oversized, with a band less front making it soft, snuggly and the perfect chuck on knit!
The hem of the body and sleeves have a pretty scallop honeycomb border design. The sleeves are the statement, with elastic added to create this volume and frill cuff combo! She is surprisingly an easy and quick knit to do and you’ll get so many compliments when you wear her, i know i do!
I’m excited to see what colours you choose and places you take it!
