children's cardigan 45 - bananarama

This round neck, dropped shoulder girl’s cardigan is a classic from the front knit in an easy eyelet pattern. The back is a completely different look with cascading graduating ruffles. No buttonholes to work, the eyelets along the right front become the buttonholes.

The clearly written pattern includes all how to techniques used in the pattern and schematic drawings for each piece.
