Miss Jane is the grown up version of Jane, a supersweet and simple knit for the junior set.

Construction:
The bodice is constructed using a hybrid raglan yoke construction. This is an unusual take on the traditional raglan , with the increases only worked on the back of the garment. The cast-on stitches form the neck and front edges of the bodice’s yoke. Stitches are picked up along the edges of the rows to form the front of the cardigan.
