Callie Cardigan

After a couple of days of intensive pattern-writing, and a self-timered photoshoot on my back deck, I FINALLY have the pattern for my O-Wool Balance cardigan ready for sale! The yarn works up into a lovely light, tweedy fabric and the yardage is fab!

CALLIE CARDIGAN
Callie is a fun, quick-to-knit seamless sweater, knit from the top down. Three-quarter sleeves, seed stitch and picot edgings and dart shaping make this feminine sweater graceful and polished. As always with a top-down raglan, you can easily modify lengths and shapings to fit your body!
