Cute Flare Sleeve Cardigan Crochet Pattern
Summer is wrapping up, and I, for one, couldn't be more excited. Fall means warm soups, cozy blankets, chilly mornings, and an excuse to break out all of my favorite layers. With cooler weather on the brain, this Cute Flare Sleeve Cardigan was conceived. I wanted to create a cardigan that was a little bit different and that would be perfect for the beginning of Fall without being too heavy. Thus, this cardigan has a relaxed, boxy fit with cute, 3/4 length flare sleeves that you can throw over a tank or tee for a little extra warmth, or wear as your main outerwear layer.
