Opening Night Knit Swing Cardigan (formerly Opening Night Drape Front Cardigan)

The Opening Night Knit Swing Cardigan is a cozy, drape-front cardigan with an oversized collar and an easy, flattering swing shape. Designed with size inclusivity in mind, this knit cardigan is a go-to layering piece you’ll reach for again and again—whether you’re dressing up or keeping it casual.

Worked flat in stockinette stitch, a circular needle is used for comfort while holding the full width of the pieces.
