LYS - Little Yellow Sweater! This cardigan was a color inspiration for Andrea Mowry, who always wanted an Ochre yellow cropped cardi to throw over dresses & tunics or buttoned up and paired with high-waisted shirts and trousers.  Three-Quarter length sleeves and the short cardi are complimented with a beautiful acanthus leaf down the bodice with little picot balls. 

Kit includes pdf & printed pattern, selected yarn & selected buttons. For yarn winding services, click here. Please add button selection to "Notes" at checkout.  Sizes with similar skein counts have been combined for kit purposes only.  Pattern comes in 8 individual sizes.
