What you need to know

Be a vision of spring meadows and sunny skies in this stylish top

There are so many things we love about this brilliant cardi, especially the way that the stripes match neatly all the way across the sleeves and body – design genius Siân Brown has done all the hard work so all you need to do is just work the stripe sequence as indicated throughout. Next is the zingy colour choice in a soft cotton mix so this works as light top in its own right, as well as a handy cover-up. Deep rib cuffs, hem and a picked up button band are the finishing touches to this handy everyday knit.
