Discover the allure of contemporary knitting with our stylish cardigan pattern, featuring simple lines and sleek shaping that make it an absolute must-knit for every knitting enthusiast. This unique cardigan is crafted in two directions, beginning with a short row yoke that is expertly worked from side to side. After mastering the yoke, you'll seamlessly transition into the body, which is knitted downwards. To enhance the design's appeal, we've incorporated charming finishing touches, such as a creatively curved short row hem that adds a touch of elegance to the overall look.
