How many cardigans can you make with just one pattern? That was the inspiration behind the “choose your own adventure” Pick-Your-Pattern cardigan. Depending on what path you decide to take, you can make a long or short body length, a 3/4 or long sleeve, and either a lace or cable diamond motif. All options will look and feel great in this wool/cotton blend that is suitable for most any time of year, any type of climate, or any adventure you choose!
