Beautiful and easy to make. This garment will bring you luck and protect you from any cool breezy out there.

NOTES ON CONSTRUCTION
Lucky Sparkle is knitted seamlessly from the top down. You are going to start your cardigan by casting on stitches for the neck and work your way down to the underarms. The raglan increases are easy to work and to modify, if necessary. A beautiful and effortless lace pattern is used to embellish the back and the sleeves. Since the garment is top-down, changing the length of the body or sleeves are painless: just try it on as you go.
