Foxley Cardigan
FOXLEY is a comfortable everyday sweater with a beautiful, easy to work twisted stitch pattern. The bracelet length sleeves are worked in stockinette stitch to keep all eyes on the Diamond Lattice body. A flattering deep V-neck and slightly cropped body length allow this sweater to go well over dresses, skirts, or trousers - whatever you fancy!
Worked as a compound raglan, seamlessly from the bottom up, with body knit flat and sleeves worked in the round. Meant to be worn with 0 to 2” / 0 to 5cm ease at the bust. For the best size, measure a sweater you like the fit of, and make the size closest to it. Shown in size 43.75” / 103.5cm with about 1” / 2.5cm of ease.
