Halyard is a cozy, comfy stockinette cardigan with clever details that make it a wardrobe staple. Split hems in oversized ribbing and understated fabric are a lovely canvas for showing off woolly worsted weight yarns. The versatile collar can either be worn flat or buttoned up, like a perfect cowl for staying snug in the cool breeze of ocean mists.
