A bit of silence with my morning coffee is a ritual around these parts. For most of the year, you’ll find me outside as I sip. Since I live in New England, that means sweaters! I designed this cardi with an asymmetric opening, long, belled sleeves, and a collar that can be worn either open or buttoned-up into a loose cowl.

I added a wee bit of waist shaping to keep things from being too boxy, but I think this would also look great longer and straight, or with an a-line shape that echoes the sleeves.
