The Aria Cardigan is a classic crochet design to add to your wardrobe. It is perfect for layering in any season with relaxed sleeves that make it cozy and casual. Choose a linen or cotton yarn for warmer months or a warmer wool for fall or winter.

This cardigan is crocheted in one panel from one side to the other. The sleeves are then added on at the armholes. Choose a size that is 6-8”/15-20cm larger than your chest measurement.
