Estella is an elegant, romantic cardigan
with blousy sleeves. Graceful and
dainty yet sophisticated and polished.
The oversized ruffle along the collar
elevates the cardigan to a refined, delicate
statement piece.

Estella is worked from the top down, flat and in the
round. After the back yoke, the two sides of the
front are worked with rhythmic increases at the
edge. The button band is worked right along with
the lower body, after the yokes are joined at the
underarm. Sleeve stitches are picked up around the
armhole and worked with a bit of short row shaping.
Lastly, the ruffle and collar are worked to finish the
cardigan.
