George is a casual boyfriend cardigan that feels just like a warm embrace.
The soft and drapey fabric, the delicate cable details and the luxury sheen of the yarn glam up this cozy garment.
It is worked in the round then cut open for a comfortable hardly-any-purl knitting experience. Twisted ribbing and simple cables spice up the stocking stitch fabric.

George est un cardigan à la coupe “boyfriend” qui vous serrera délicatement dans ses bras.
Il est ample et comfortable sans être rustique, grâce aux côtes torses et aux torsades délicates qui soulignent les raglans et animent le dos du vêtement.
Il se tricote en rond , puis s’ouvre sur le devant, ce qui permet de travailler presque exclusivement en mailles endroit.
