Cassis

$8.00

Cassis is a cozy cardigan that’s easy to customize as you like. The reversible collar can be folded back or draped inward and looks great either way. The casual shape can be pinned closed or worn open, and the length is easy to adjust. Simple lace on the front and back makes a flattering line and adds a little interest. Pattern is written for both long or short lengths, long and short sleeves, and either worsted or aran weight yarn. Sweater is knit from the top down with minimal shaping and no seaming.
