This cardigan is the perfect sweater for those upcoming crisp fall nights! It is a top-down, one-seam cardigan with lace panels down each side of the buttonbands. It features set-in sleeves. The sleeves are knit from the arm-hole down and every row is clearly written for frustration-free knitting. For sizes 24”/61cm chest and up, the cuffs and hood are a complementary lace, and the cuffs double as fingerless mitts! A folded, picot-edged hem finishes the look
