Clean, playful simplicity with vintage appeal wins the day in Lotte, a raglan cardigan by Pam Allen. Worked flat from the bottom up and joined at the raglan yoke, with gentle waist shaping and a touch of embroidery at the yoke and cuffs—small details like these make this buttoned cardigan in Osprey really special.
