“Endearment” is a romantic, delicate and very feminine cardigan, looking equally flattering over a light summer dress or paired with your favorite jeans.
Worn open or buttoned, it is visually slimming by way of combining Hanna’s signature entirely seamless construction with just the right amount of added waist shaping, eliminating bulk in unwanted areas.
The intricate cable and lace pattern over the fronts looks much more complicated than it actually is, but is easy to knit, especially since it is all charted.
Longer hems and cuffs with decorative splits, a novelty for Hanna’s style, are sure to please everyone looking for “that special extra” in a new cardigan!
