Notes

Modern interpretation of a design classic with checked pattern and big pockets.
Style it up for semi formal events or style it down with jeans and sneakers.
This cardigan is a true allrounder for your capsule wardrobe.

version A: a classic chanel style jacket with round neckline - something that goes with every outfit, from a little black dress to jeans and boots. always chic and stylish.
version B: big pockets and shirt collar - changing the overall impression totally! for the more modern look (which can be adapted later, because we knitters are flexible and can remove the collar once the fashion is over wink

If you are curious about my other knitting adventures; most of them are documented on Instagram, and you are very welcome to take a peek wink
