Oscillation is my go-to cardigan, perfect for every situation. It’s knit from the top down, seamlessly, with raglan shaping, and a flattering V-neck. Knit with fingering weight yarn, it’s a beautifully versatile layering piece. It has a gorgeous twisted stitch cable pattern down the back, and a fun twisted stitch detail along the raglan seams which continues down the sides. Knit in Dimond Laine Elmer Tweed Fingering, it’s lightweight and buttery soft with a lovely tweed texture.
