A sideways sweater, knit from each cuff to the centre, Fizzy Lizzy Cardy features a fizz of mosaic stitches in a striking vertical panel using two contrasting colours for visual impact. The pattern offers a choice between two body lengths, regular or cropped. Pair this cardigan or the separate Fizzy Lizzy Pullover with the coordinating Fizzy Lizzy Hat to add to your options.

The pattern includes both charted and written instructions for the Mosaic section and an accompanying tutorial video with a construction overview and techniques.
