River Dance Cardigan

River Dance is a very elegant, and a very feminine design that flows and changes as a river. It is worked with fingering weight yarn to a DK gauge. This design is ideal for wool or cotton, thus making it a beautiful layering piece for all year round. 
This cardigan is worked as a top down raglan, features very simple yet very effective lace, and a touch of Celtic cables as finishing touches.
