The Double Cross Cardigan

I sure do love a good cardigan. So much so that I’ve nearly worn my Boxed Baubles Cardigan to death! Naturally, it was time to design another one.
I’ve always loved the look of blanket cardigans. They are super cozy while still being very chic and fashionable. I designed this cardi with generous side panels and a beautiful spike double crochet criss-cross stitch pattern. This gives the piece a warm feel and a gorgeous drape.
