Adorable pattern!!

I intended to wear the bolero on top of a black dress for a upcoming wedding party. But, because I tend to feel uneasy in boleros (I dont know why, maybe too girlish for me), the Cloud Bolero became a Cloud Cardigan.

MODs:
I put the sleeve stitches on waste yarn when dividing sleeves and body.
I picked up 8sts from the armpit area.
Worked the sleeves in the round. To make a shapely sleeve, I decreased under the arm every 4 rows twice, omitting one K2Tog. Continued to knit without mods till I was content with the length.

I had no idea about Picot edging at all till I found this YouTube video. It helped me a lot!!

Thanks Ysolda for sharing the lovely pattern!!

とてもかわいいパターン!

結婚パーティに着ていけるような一枚をと、編み始めました。
でも、ボレロはかわいくなりすぎて苦手なのだ!との思いでカーディガンサイズにまで伸びました。
