This model is my definition of the perfect cardigan, the one I want to wear every day. It is a basic model characterized by feminine details that make it unique. This timeless piece fits well into any wardrobe.

 This is a top down, seamless pattern. It has a V-neck with a cute crochet detail on the button band. The pattern includes 2 sleeve options: puff sleeves and straight sleeves. It is shown here with the puff sleeves.

 The presentation pattern is knitted with a "fingering" weight yarn doubled with a silk and mohair lace yarn. This combination of yarns can be substituted with a DK weight yarn.
