PATTERN INFORMATION
The Florentine Cardi is a stunning short-sleeved crochet cardigan constructed as a bottom-up paneled drop shoulder. The main technique used is interlocking crochet, which means you only have to work with one color at a time! Featuring a captivating Florentine-like stitch, it’s assembled from one back, two front, and two sleeve panels. Faux-knit details accent the hem, collar, lapel, and cuffs, while delicate buttons add refined elegance.
