Shaina

Cardigan

 

This garment is made with four rectangular pieces, two for the front and two for the back.  All of them use the same three lace stitch patterns. For the bottom, I chose a lace pattern  which makes a horizontal line with a wavy edge,  The upper lace shows bold vertical lines. The lace in between makes a simple border and is useful as a buttonhole. 

The pattern comes in two widths and two lengths so you can choose the combination of width and length to fit your style. The wider body covers the arms and is longer on the sides.
