Oversized Bimini Cardi Crochet Along - (Week 3 - Part 2)
Welcome to Week 3, where we will finish the body portion of our part 2 of the Oversized Bimini Crochet Along. This week we will be working on the last half of the body. By now you have a rythem to how the repeats works, So let's get to it..
This week we are working on the last few rows of the pattern. This is where you decide how long or short you want your cardigan to be. Keeping in mind that this design is meant to have an Oversized fit, I am 5'9 and with the full repeats, the cardigan falls around my knees. There are options below to help you with making your cardigan shorter/longer to fit your body & your preference.
