Fiddlesticks Knitting Rhapsody Cardigan Pattern
This pretty cardigan is gently shaped at the waist for a flattering fit. The pretty lace detail adds to the flared effect at the bottom edge and sleeves.
This cardigan is worked from the bottom-up in one piece to the armholes, then fronts and back are worked separately. Sleeves are worked flat and sewn in later. A delicate button band and small buttons provide a pretty finish.
Recommended for Intermediate knitters.
