Sidestep Cardigan

This is a basic cardigan with a neckband that has lots of crochet bobbles in a zigzag shape. The cardigan is seamlessly worked from the top-down with raglan sleeve shaping. The fronts are shaped with increases to give the cardigan a casual look. Stitches for front bands are picked up from the cardigan edges. The pattern includes a video tutorial on the crochet hook bobbles.
