               Have fun playing with color on this child’s sweater, which makes a perfect first stranded-colorwork project.  The cardigan is worked seamlessly from the neck down with round-yoke shaping.  It makes a nice lightweight spring/summer sweater in the original ribbon yarn, but would work just as well in a more substantial yarn.
