【about design】 A cardigan that reveals the colors of your tops in polka dots. The 3D lines on the back shoulder stand out, brings out a nice touch to this cardigan. The 3/4 puff sleeves are extra wide so that you can layer it over various types of clothes. It is worked from the top down, seamlessly. Take advantage of the top-down construction and try on your cardigan in progress to adjust the body and sleeve lengths to your liking. I hope you enjoy knitting!　―Midori Hirose 【about pattern】 English text pattern/PDF only.
