Jewel Cardigan
This cardigan is worked from the top down, in one piece. The sleeves are picked up at the armholes and worked top down, and in the round. The in-set pockets work with the lines formed by the accent color. There are two front pockets and one secret pocket hidden in the cuff.
Worked with a bulky yarn, the Jewel Cardigan works well as a Fall or Spring Jacket as well as a cozy winter cardigan. The shape is slightly A-line; slightly fitted at the shoulder with increases along the side that allow for a flattering fit over the hips.
