Crochet Cow Print Cardigan
This is my first pattern, fyi. Pattern is free for use, but feel free to leave a tip on venmo! (username: Aidan-Wells)
SIZING: I wear a XL in most shirts, and final cardigan is loose-fitting on me. If you’re looking to size down, just remove a few rows and columns from the patterns.
