In Austin it may never get truly cold, but that just means that having beautiful transitional pieces in your wardrobe is all the more important.
Named for the Goldenrods that bloom here just before the kids start heading back to school, this shapely cardigan bridges the gap between seasons. A top-down raglan with shaping through the waist and hips, Goldenrod is knit all in one piece with minimal finishing.
