The sleeves are picked up at the armholes and then worked top down. The texture and colours come from using a plain and variegated yarn combined with slipped stitches, but only one colour is used at a time. It's simpler than it looks! The Xanadu is a vibrant, jazzy cardigan perfect for a lively little one. Choose a plain contrasting colour for a different effect, or use up your stash and have loads of different background colours. The cardigan is part of the Xanadu set. This includes a [pullover][3] and [tank top][4].
