INTRO
Featuring a garter block motif on the shoulders, pockets, button bands and lower back, Street Smart is all about the accents. With a top-down, modified drop shoulder construction and longer hem in back, this cardigan, coat or blazer is perfect for wearing over anything and adding a touch of refinement.
This pattern is divided into two files: the first file is for the first ten sizes, and the second file is for the last ten sizes. The sizing info for sizes 1-10 is directly below the Yarn section. Scroll to the sizing section for sizes 11-20 to review the pattern info for those sizes.
