Shaw Collar Cardi
Rectangles and trapezoids are the ruling geometric figures in this design. Again, the simplicity of the shapes allowed us to take the luxurious texture stitches to a level that borders on decadence. You’ll love how this fabric feels as you watch the pattern stitch dissipate up the body panels. And we all know nothing beats the feel of a luxurious ribbed shawl collar. This one is a wardrobe essential—ya gotta have one!
