From the description: Shaped to flatter the figure, this one-button cardigan is a soft and sensual sweater that is sure to be a show-stopper. The interesting knit tuck stitch is a little challenging when combined with the shaping, but it’s well worth the time. Crochet shell sleeves and edging provide the perfect finish.
