Designed by Linda Kortman of Wild Little Acorn
This elegant kid's cardigan is created using granny squares with a 3-d flower feature. The flower can be added to alternating squares, or as many squares as you want. Squares are joined using the "join as you go" method, and finished with a scalloped edge.
All steps are well explained with over 80 photos, a layout chart, and complete video tutorials. Links to tutorials are included in the pattern.
This is very clearly written, extensively tested, and cross-checked for size and fit on our models. The download contains two separate files.
