This is a super quick knit and great for advanced beginners and beyond! With many chilly spring days and evenings still ahead of us, there’s plenty of time to whip up a Willakenzie cardigan.

The Willakenzie Cardigan is a cleanly styled cardigan jacket with wide ribbing. It was designed to be the cardigan you can pair with practically anything, adding a layer of warmth with timeless style. The V Cable along the front was inspired by vineyard rows. This gorgeous cardigan is perfect for spring wine tasting!

Note: Ecological wool knits more like an aran weight than a bulky. As long as you get gauge, an aran weight works great. :)
