The delightful Concept Albaca Lace yarn captivated with its softness and sweet subtle sheen. The cardigan turned out to have a wonderfully draping and light feel. With this yarn, there’s no need to worry about it being prickly or itchy.
I wanted the cardigan to be as timeless and classic in style as possible. I designed it that way and added pearl buttons for extra flair, inspired by the subtle elegance of the yarn’s sheen.

Creamy cardigan is knitted back and forth in stockinette stitch on the right side and purl on the wrong side. The cardigan is knitted from the bottom up to the underarms, then divided into two front panels and a back panel. The pieces are knitted separately, leaving the stitches of the other pieces on hold.
