My daughter wants a short cardigan, and she’s really stressing that the length must be short—short, short, short. But when I got to the end of the sleeves, there was still a bit left to knit.

tle cardigan my daughter wanted—she specifically asked for it to be short, really short. At the end, we were just short on yarn for the sleeves, so I used mohair to create lacey cuffs that look playful and adorable. My daughter is a big Mayday fan and even sewed various plush toys onto it herself. I teased her about being childish, but she replied, “You just don’t get it” {facepalm}. She happily wore it to a concert anyway!
