Mini Cardi (ENG)
The sweater is worked flat and uses a top-down construction with raglan sleeves.
Short rows raise the back neck section.
The cardigan is cropped with long sleeves and V-neck, and the front is larger than the back. It gives it more ease and comfort for all sizes. The front will have a slight drape when the cardigan is worn with positive ease.
1/1 rib at the hem, cuff, and button bands. All bind-offs use the Italian bind-off method.
