The Light Cardigan
THE LIGHT SWEATER - KNITTING PATTERN
As we transition into the next season, The Light
Cardigan will be with you every step of the way.
With a fitted and cropped design, this lovely sweater will
become a favorite in your wardrobe.
Subtle stitch shifts at the waist gives the illusion of shaping without increasing or decreasing.
The sweater is knit from the back to the front in one
piece. Sleeves are knit separately and attached at
the shoulder.
This pattern has a cropped length. If you want to
make the cardigan longer, simply work more
stockinette rows on the front and back panels.
Make sure that the front and back lengths match.
