Evening Festivities Cardigan Pattern
by Joanne Yordanou
Directions for this project in Twelve Months of Knitting, shown below. Everyone needs a little something to take the chill off a formal evening, and with this cardigan you get the beauty of a lace shawl with the practicality of a cardigan. The elegant drape and whisper soft insulation of Alpaca Cloud are the perfect compliment to this pattern. You could also wear it wrapped or closed with a brooch for a more contoured look. Shown in Tide Pool Heather.- Needles:
- Size 6: 36" circular
