Description
********** This product is a CROCHET PATTERN in PDF format. **********
The Ice Cream Party Cardi is a simple and classic children’s cardigan. While the body uses a basic stitch, special care is given to the shoulder area for a good fit.
This cardigan is seamed, has a deep V-neck and a modified drop shoulder. Each piece is worked flat from the bottom up and mattress stitched together. After seaming, slip stitch ribbing is applied around the bottom, neckline, and sleeves of the cardigan. Links to video tutorials are provided for help with assembly, seaming, applied slip stitch ribbing, and buttonholes.
