A simple, yet unique construction gives the common granny stripe a stunning, fading stripe appearance. The stripes can be designed with a variety of colors that blend in together creating a cozy and fashionable look.

Pattern is worked in two pieces, starting from the center of sweater and working towards the cuff. Color changes are worked to create a fade while working the granny stripe pattern. Right and Left sides are joined at center back and sides and sleeves are seamed to complete the cardigan.
