Nougat cardigan is classic yet contemporary, with a relaxed fit that drapes effortlessly over the body, making it versatile and flattering for various body shapes and sizes. The open front and long sleeves add to its timeless appeal, while the ribbed cuffs and hem provide a snug and comfortable fit.

Nougat is worked in brioche stitch starting from the neckband and working the back part of the yoke. Then stitches are picked up from both shoulders and left and right fronts are worked separately. The body is joined and worked in the flat. Finally stitches for sleeves are picked up from the body and sleeves are worked in the round. Decreases for sleeves creates a beautiful, draped detail.
