Sweet Poppy






Now that it is spring again and sun shines brightly, I am working on my Sun and Sand ebook.
New year brought new inspiration for my designs, and some earlier design prototypes are not forgotten about either.
My newest inspiration and newest pattern that I am adding to the ebook is Sweet Poppy.



The cardigan is completely seamless and is worked from the top down. I have used an amazing technique developed by Susie Myers, “contiguous set-in sleeves”, that allows shoulder shaping and construction of set-in sleeves without the use of a single short row. 

Sizes available: 
When choosing a size, please do not rely solely on age categories. Measure your child and choose the appropriate size.   About 1 inch of positive ease is already incorporated into the pattern.
Length is measured from the underarm to where the back ends.
