It is the detailing that makes this simple cropped cardigan special: the twisted-stitch rib perfectly showcases the rayon ribbon yarn, which gives off a pleasant sheen; the set-in sleeves, shaped shoulders, and back neck shaping keep it from looking too boxy; and the twisted cord closes the V-neck gracefully. The short length gives the sweater a youthful look.
