Softer than a suit jacket yet quite sophisticated, this tweedy angora-blend cardigan is an easy knit in a modified rib stitch. The Tweedy Cardigan first appeared in the Fall/Winter 1958 issue of the original Vogue Knitting magazine.

An updated version of a perennial classic. The standard-fitting, button-front ribbed cardigan has vents at the sides and cuffs. Then and Now pattern Winter 1997/98
