The Henrietta Cardigan is the perfect mix of modern and vintage. There is a gorgeous intricate lace detailing incorporated into the design that will give you such joy! The cardigan is worked from the top down all in one piece. Only simple stitches are used including hdc, dc, fpdc, bpdc and chs. I used a cotton dk yarn but this would work equally well in acrylic or wool. Style the cardigan with a dress or with your little one’s favourite pair of jeans and they will look adorable. Be sure to check out the matching Henrietta Bonnet!
