NOTE: When this was published in Creative Knitting Magazine the name was changed to Azure Kimono. I am changing it back to it’s original name.

This toss over anything cropped cardi features a fun and interesting two color drop stitch pattern at the hem with a two color braided cast on.

Dolman sleeves are integrated into the back and front pieces.

When working the waves pattern, always carry color not in use, loosely along the side by bringing new color behind old.
