Sweetheart Collared Shawl Sweater Knitting Pattern Download

Description

This open-front cardigan is like a shawl with sleeves! Body is knit beginning with a provisional cast-on at the center back, and worked sideways toward the draping front edges. Sleeves are knit downward from shoulder to cuff, and the garter-stitch collar is worked from stitches picked up along the top edge. Yarn is held double throughout.
