This open-front Cardigan features a contrasting yoke worked in an easy welted stripes motif, that is integrated in the dolman sleeves-construction.
Continuous decreases produce a tulip-shaped line, which helps make this very oversized garment still look elegant and put together.
The tailored shaping worked with a slope that curves softly towards the hemline, produces a 3D formed hemline that hugs the body and that improves the drape of the whole cardigan. A big Grazie to Michela for translating this pattern into Italian!
¡Muchas Gracias to Marìa for the Spanish translation!
And a big Obrigado to Inês for the Portuguese translation!
Ein grosses Dankeschön an Ute for her great help on the German Translation!
Et un grand merci à Patricia pour la traduction en Français! MATERIAL
