#305 Azalea Cardigan
A pretty little cardigan can instantly elevate any outfit! This one features two beautiful lace patterns and a slightly cropped length for a fresh update to your wardrobe.
It’s also a top-down cardigan, so it’s seamless! Knitting begins with ribbing at the neckline. Then, the main lace panels are started. As you work increases towards the bust line, triangular segments are worked in Reverse Stockinette stitch, with a simple eyelet lace design running down the center of each triangle.
At the underarm, the cardigan transitions to Stockinette stitch after you divide for the body and sleeves, and cast on extra stitches at each underarm.
The cardigan is worked to the slightly cropped length (which is easily made longer or shorter), and finished with a ribbed border. Sleeves are worked in the round and slightly gathered at the ribbed cuffs.
Button bands are then picked up and knit to finish. Both lace patterns are charted and written.
