Mandy Cardigan
Feminine, flowing lines collide with subtle lace details and soft ruffles to create Mandy, your new favorite cardigan that goes with you everywhere. Mandy’s draping front panels add comfort and ease, the gently ruffled peplum adds a sophisticated flair, and the diamond lace motif on each shoulder adds a modern edge.
Knit from the top down in one piece, the Mandy cardigan only requires small seams at the underarms. The pattern uses written instructions for the lace patterning featured on the sleeve.
