Pattern Description:

Inspiration for this quick top down striped cardigan came from another of my favorite flavors, blueberry. The stripes remind me of the swirl of colors and ribbon of fruit in a blueberry swirl bar available on our local ice cream truck. A unique button tab gives a modern touch to a mostly vintage inspired, top down short sleeved cardigan. The Aran weight gauge ensures that this little cardi is instant gratification.
