Georgia

This pattern is for Georgia, a fitted cardigan knit from the top down. Designed with the slightest negative ease at the bust and sleeves for a flattering, figure hugging, fit. Subtle gathers above the bust line add a feminine touch to this simple design. The particularly loose gauge makes for a faster knit resulting in a light and elastic fabric.
