This whimsically dapper cardigan is equally suited for the shores or the sandbox, fending off the chill for milder weather in a lighter fabric that gives little arms lots of freedom. • Cardigan is worked from the top down. It features a doubled collar and inset pockets that give just a taste of intarsia (sew them on as patches if you prefer). • Pattern is written for adventurous beginner to intermediate knitters. Shown in size 4. The sweater is sized with extra length in sleeves and hem for added longevity.
