The Goose Island Cardigan is a timeless, easy-crochet layer designed for comfort and practicality. Worked flat in one piece with simple stitches and subtle shaping, it helps the heavier yarn drape beautifully without extra bulk. A natural follow-up to the fan-favorite Biltmore Blanket Cardigan, this version trades the lighter worsted weight for a plush bulky yarn that adds cozy texture and structure. The short sleeves make it perfect for everyday wear — warm enough to keep you comfortable while you move through your day, no sleeve-rolling required. Whether you’re crafting, working, or winding down, this cardigan fits right in.
