Picot Cardigan

I wear sweaters to work all winter, but I have a hard time getting dressed once summer comes.

Maybe this will help: short, loose sleeves, an open front (although you could add a dramatic button), and mostly cotton yarn. Simple waist shaping and picot-edged hems at elbow, waist and neck finish it off.
