Gigil (Tagalog) – refers to a situation of such extreme cuteness it’s overwhelming, or the irresistible urge to hug something cute.
You know that feeling when you see a bunch of puppies playing with ducklings, or a baby’s first smile? That’s Gigil, the overwhelming feeling of cuteness. And Gigil, the cardigan, embraces that feeling of cuteness and innocence to its max. It is a long, oversized cardigan with a fun colorful pattern at the back, two seamless pockets at the front, a split hem and ribbed cuffs, hem, and button band. It is constructed in five separate panels, made in vertical rows, and then sewn together. All color changes are done using intarsia and the pattern includes charts to follow for the color changes.
