Inspired by a certain singer-songwriter’s album called Folklore, she wore a strikingly similar sweater at the end of a video as the same name of our contrast color, Cardigan.

This classic cable & texture sweater is knit in pieces from the bottom up and seamed. Knit this cardigan and be your own star!

Shown in Tosh DK, DK Twist & Farm Twist also make excellent alternatives.
