This oversized V-neck cardigan uses different fibers to create touchable intarsia flowers in a tonal palette. Cardigan is worked flat, in one piece from the bottom up. Drop-shoulder sleeves are worked flat from the bottom up and seamed. Button bands are worked at the end by picking up stitches around the front opening.
