#171 Extra Spicy Mustard

Add a pop of color to your wardrobe with this stylish mustard short-sleeve cardigan, a perfect accent piece for any outfit. This unique cardigan is designed to be both fashionable and functional, making it an essential addition to your knitting pattern collection.

The cardigan begins with a meticulously crafted yoke, worked side to side using clever short rows that effectively shape a gracefully curved neckline. This thoughtful design choice not only provides comfort but also enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the garment. From there, stitches are picked up along the bottom edge to work the body of the cardigan from the top down, creating a seamless and polished look.

To elevate the design further, small cable panels are skillfully integrated to accent the front lines of the cardigan. Additionally, a series of small cables are incorporated down the center back, where they are gathered and crossed to create a flattering effect that narrows at the waist. This attention to detail ensures a silhouette that is both elegant and tailored, perfect for showcasing your feminine style.

For the final touches, wide ribbed front bands and short ribbed armhole bands are added, enhancing both the structure and style of the cardigan. The resulting piece is not only chic but also versatile, suitable for layering over a simple dress or adding flair to your favorite jeans and tee ensemble.
