Chelsea Cardigan
Featuring an eye-catching floral pineapple motif that graces the back and shoulders, the loose fitting Chelsea cardigan is a lightweight piece perfect for the cool spring and fall weather. The delicate lacy stripe pattern of the open fronts travels downward to join the back as a decorative border. The unique top-down construction, with simple neck shaping for a better fit, leaves you with only two short side seams to sew. Chelsea can also be worn “upside down” with extra fabric for a folded-over collar to warm your neck.
