Stripy Cropped Cardigan

Cropped looks are all the rage this season and this cute cardigan uses the colours of nature to boost your wardrobe. Cropped cardis are great for wearing over loose dresses for extra warmth, and make a good alternative to jackets.

The use of a single reverse st st row in a contrast colour, gives the cardi an interesting optical colour effect This is combined with a lace-stitch panel at the centre back and on the sleeves adding to the unique texture of this garment.

Knitted in an Aran weight wool, this is a quick, but interesting project.
