This women’s cardigan sweater features a simple eyelet pattern at the yoke and on the sleeves. It has a slightly A-line shape created with increases along the side seams of the body. The sweater is cast on at the top neckline, and knit through the yoke which is shaped with M1 increases between the eyelet lace pattern bands. Stitches for the sleeves are placed on hold and the stockinette body is worked down to the bottom hem. The sleeve stitches are then picked up and the eyelet lace pattern is continued onto the elbow-length sleeves. Garter-stitch front bands finish off the simple shape with button closures at the yoke.

Sample is shown in size 35 3/4” (91 cm) with approximately 1 1/2” of positive ease. You will need approximately 4 (5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6) balls of Firefly to knit the sizes as written.
