This long-sleeved, ruffled-edge cardigan is cropped to fit well over a little girl’s full skirted dress, but you could easily lengthen the body if desired. The fun yellow ruffles capture the exuberance and joy of spring. And did we mention, it’s great for twirling in?

Saguaro Pillow

By , from the issue

Featuring a single Saguaro cactus, the negative space around it echos the sparse vastness of the desert. The simple, clean construction of one large piece tapers to a point with a button hole. Since there is only one piece of colorwork in the pattern and only two colors, this is a fantastic project for beginners.
