Kuzu is a short-sleeve (with options for long sleeves) cardigan featuring lace details at the bottom. It is knit bottom-up so we can create a pretty lace band at the ribbing! It is designed to resemble my favorite vintage short-sleeve cardigan, which I’ve worn to death! It’s a very fine knit, the one you would typically wear with a wide A-line skirt or dress. The pattern includes a few ideas for customization as sleeve-length and neckline finish.
