This little cardigan will keep the chill off in a cool office or on a mild winter’s day. Slightly fitted, seamless, short-sleeved, knit from the top down with set-in sleeves knit along with the body to the underarms. I am exploring this construction technique and wanted to start with something simple and useful! The large ribbed collar is picked up and knitted on last. The sleeve and bottom ribbing are just a little different to add some visual interest.

Blue sample shown is worn with about 1 inch of ease in the bust measurement.
