Feminine smock stitch detailing makes this cute cardigan a standout
for everyday wear. This unique design is worked from side to side,
creating a stretchy fabric that hugs your body in all the right places. Post stitches worked over alternating rows of single and double
crochet form the figure-flattering smocking. The button band and
edging are added after the piece is seamed, and you can make yours simple or fanciful, depending on your taste.
Errata is available for this pattern.
