The cutest lace cardigan.

This cardigan is worked flat, top-down and, of course, seamlessly. The cardigan has a round yoke and a simple lace pattern. The rest of the cardigan is stockinette stitch. The back of the neck is shaped taller with short rows right after the yoke and there are instructions for an optional bust dart.
