Amapola Cardigan

Designed by Claudia Q > [Find the kit here. The pattern comes free with the kit][2] Amapola is Spanish for Poppy, representing both simplicity and brilliance in this new design. The cardigan is a quick, chunky knit with an elegant detailed neckband, and balloon sleeves that cinch in at the wrist for a feminine look. The hem is shaped with optional short rows to make it slightly longer in the back and shorter in the front. The Amapola Cardigan is a wonderful transition piece that can be layered up for winter, or celebrated on its own as we move into spring. The model is wearing medium to large so it looks oversized.
