Classic Lines Cardigan
This cardigan is knit in lace yarn held double, creating a lightweight garment that’s perfect for chilly evenings or overly-enthusiastic office air conditioning.
This cardigan is worked holding two strands of lace yarn throughout. The subtle stripes come from adding a third strand every sixth row—the loose fabric allows this triple-stranding without changing the gauge. A steek in front and turned hems make this a sophisticated yet simple knit.
Meant to be worn with 2–6” positive ease.
