CHANEL-INSPIRED CARDI

Knit Simple Spring/Summer 2013 #26

Design by Cheryl Murray

The contrast ruffle around the edges gives this ridged cardi an extra dose of ladylike glamour. To inset the ruffle, hold the self-ruching yarn along with a strand of the main skein as you pick up stitches for the front bands and neckline.
